The Impact of Face Inversion on Animacy Categorization

open access: yesi-Perception, 2017
Face animacy perception is categorical: Gradual changes in the real/artificial appearance of a face lead to nonlinear behavioral responses. Neural markers of face processing are also sensitive to face animacy, further suggesting that these are meaningful

Plasma oxytocin explains individual differences in neural substrates of social perception

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
The neuropeptide oxytocin plays a critical role in social cognition and behavior. A number of studies using intranasal administration have demonstrated that oxytocin improves social perception.

Emotion expression modulates perception of animacy from faces

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2017
Discriminating real human faces from artificial can be achieved quickly and accurately by face-processing networks, but less is known about what stimulus qualities or interindividual differences in the perceiver might influence whether a face is perceived as being alive.

A two-stage framework for neural processing of biological motion

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
It remains to be understood how biological motion is hierarchically computed, from discrimination of local biological motion animacy to global dynamic body perception.

Episodic encoding is more than the sum of its parts: An fMRI investigation of multifeatural contextual encoding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Episodic memories are characterized by their contextual richness, yet little is known about how the various features comprising an episode are brought together in memory. Here we employed fMRI and a multidimensional source memory procedure to investigate

Animate monitoring is not uniform: implications for the animate monitoring hypothesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
The animate monitoring hypothesis (AMH) purports that humans evolved specialized mechanisms that prioritize attention to animates over inanimates. Importantly, the hypothesis emphasizes that any animate—an entity that can move on its own—should take ...

Selection for specific behavioural traits does not influence preference of chasing motion and visual strategy in dogs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Perception of inanimate objects as animate based on motion cues alone seems to be present in phylogenetically distant species, from birth (humans and chicks). However, we do not know whether the species’ social and ecological environment has an influence

Populating and Staying with Methodological Surprise

open access: yesInternational Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This submission shares methodological experiments, cultivated in practices of composting by staying open to a surprise in art and design education research. Openness towards a surprise reduces a need to control a defining momentum of inquiry and instead welcomes composted and layered unknowns through multisensory learning experiences.

What absent switch costs and mixing costs during bilingual language comprehension can tell us about language control. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Epub 2019 Mar 28.In the current study, we set out to investigate language control, which is the process that minimizes cross-language interference, during bilingual language comprehension. According to current theories of bilingual language comprehension,
