|
Hendonic and aversive reactions are shared between who?
|
Mammalian species. Hardwired.
|
|
Smiling is hardwired or learned?
|
learned.
|
|
What is Prosopagnosia?
|
Failure to perceive faces
|
|
What are the two types of prosopagnosia?
|
>Acquired prosopagnosia – TBI; stroke
> Developmental prosopagnosia (DP) – congenital; possible genetic basis |
|
People who suffer from prosopagnosia will reply on what to tell people apart?
|
Gate. The way people walk and move their hands/arms and any other mannerisms/hair.
|
|
What is face inversion effect?
|
We are disproportionately bad
at recognising an inverted face, compared with other objects |
|
We recognise people how?
|
In groups on a singular level.
|
|
Patients with prospagnosia have been damaged where?
|
In the occipitol area.
|
|
Where did scientists find cells that responded to photos of macaque monkeys?
|
Identifying face cells in the superior temporal sulcus of the macaque monkey.
|
|
FFA is what?
|
Fusiform face area.
|
|
Do patients with prosopagnosia still have activation in the FFA?
|
CP‟s have normal activity in FFA (despite abnormal face processing!)
|
|
Electrophysiological response to faces can be seen in which brain region?
|
the N170 response
|
|
N170 and FFA are the same with face recognition?
|
NO they activate in different areas.
|
|
Is FFA only active and specific to faces?
|
NO FFA is also active for categories for
which we are “experts". Bird expert vs car experts activate FFA when looking at bird and cars respectively. |
|
Who was WJ?
|
patient who had a stoke and developed prosopagnosia. He was an expert at recognising sheep. He could not recognise famous faces but was still better at recognising sheep.
|
|
What is the N170 telling us?
|
N170 is definitely specific to faces – but may be caused by another part of the network yet to be
properly analysed. |
|
Are faces the only type of stimulus we process separately?
|
In the parahippocampal place area (PPA) and Retrosplenial cortex also involved in scene processing.
|
|
What is the parahippocampal place area (PPA)?
|
Cannot navigate in or reproduce the
spatial structure of new environments and those lived in subsequent to the injury – but can produce old environments well. |
|
What is the Extrastriate body area (EBA)?
|
EBA is selective to bodies and body parts. (body language)
|
|
What is associated with the visual word form area?
|
alexia - can't see or process words.
|
|
What are some patterns people may experience?
|
Words and objects
Face and objects. |
|
Dual process model of object recognition?
|
Dual process model of object recognition
|
|
What is a holistic analysis?
|
Faces and objects.
|
|
What is analysis by parts?
|
Objects and words.
