Faces are perhaps the most important object category in visual perception, as faces of
conspecifics frequently convey behaviourally, socially, and emotionally relevant information …

Hundreds of studies have investigated the early ERPs to faces and objects using scalp and
intracranial recordings. The vast majority of these studies have used uncontrolled stimuli …

How fast are visual stimuli categorized as faces by the human brain? Because of their high
temporal resolution and the possibility to record simultaneously from the whole brain …

Magnetic‐and electric‐evoked brain responses have traditionally been analyzed by
comparing the peaks or mean amplitudes of signals from selected channels and averaged …

Background One common criterion for classifying electrophysiological brain responses is
based on the distinction between transient (ie event-related potentials, ERPs) and steady …

The N170 waveform is larger over posterior temporal cortex when healthy subjects view
faces than when they view other objects. Source analyses have produced mixed results …

Neuroimaging techniques have been traditionally used to demonstrate differences between
means calculated across conditions or groups of subjects. However, as illustrated by the …

A reliable measure is one we can trust in the long run. Thus, the reliability of measurements
is as important as their validity. Here we investigated the reliability of brain electrical visual …

In this review, we focus on the role of temporal stages of encoded facial information in the
visual system, which might enable the efficient determination of species, identity, and …

We studied how task constraints modulate the relationship between single-trial event-related
potentials (ERPs) and image noise. Thirteen subjects performed two interleaved tasks: on …
