enhanced for polymodal over unimodal stimuli. The human superior temporal sulcus (STS) …

The eyes convey a wealth of information in social interactions. This information is analyzed
by multiple brain networks, which we identified using functional magnetic resonance …

In 6 experiments, the authors investigated whether attention orienting by gaze direction is
modulated by the emotional expression (neutral, happy, angry, or fearful) on the face. The …

This study presents the first three-dimensional mapping of cortical sulcal patterns in autism,
a pervasive developmental disorder, the underlying neurobiology of which remains …

This study investigated the extent to which observation of an action performed by a human
actor or a robotic arm may kinematically prime the performance of an observer subsequently …

''I was at a conference and I saw this other person walking. I thought it was probably
someone I knew and so I smiled at them and started to greet them, only to realize then that it …

The neurophysiological basis of the face inversion effect was studied with magneto-and
electro-encephalography in 10 normal subjects. Spatiotemporal analyses using dipole …

We show that populations of visually responsive cells in the anterior part of the superior
temporal sulcus (STSa) of the macaque monkey code for the sight of both specific articulated …

We use causal attributions to infer the most likely cause of events in the social world. Internal
attributions imply self-responsibility for events. The self-serving bias describes the tendency …

Emotion and attention represent fundamental human psychological processes that influence
perception, action, and conscious experience. At any point in time, humans are confronted …
