How social is the chaser? Neural correlates of chasing perception in 9-month-old infants

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2016
We investigated the neural correlates of chasing perception in infancy to determine whether animated interactions are processed as social events. By using EEG and an ERP design with animations of simple geometric shapes, we examined whether the positive ...

When shapes are more than shapes: perceptual, developmental, and neurophysiological basis for attributions of animacy and theory of mind

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
Among a variety of entities in their environment, what do humans consider alive or animate and how does this attribution of animacy promote development of more abstract levels of mentalizing?

DNA methylation of the oxytocin receptor gene predicts neural response to ambiguous social stimuli

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
Oxytocin and its receptor (OXTR) play an important role in a variety of social perceptual and affiliative processes. Individual variability in social information processing likely has a strong heritable component, and as such, many investigations have ...

Young Children’s Indiscriminate Helping Behavior Toward a Humanoid Robot

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Young children help others in a range of situations, relatively indiscriminate of the characteristics of those they help. Recent results have suggested that young children’s helping behavior extends even to humanoid robots.
