Abstract
⺠The primary function of action-mirroring is not to ascribe an intention to an agent, but to underlie action-concepts. ⺠Sharing an agent's intention, not mindreading, might be the by-product of action-mirroring. ⺠Only the context, not action-mirroring itself, can select a motor chain of mirror neurons. ⺠Why embodied simulation is unlikely to generate a representation of the agent's intention.
