False recognition in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer’s disease – disinhibition or amnesia?

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2016
Episodic memory recall processes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) can be similarly impaired, whereas recognition performance is more variable.

Importance of the inverted control in measuring holistic face processing with the composite effect and part-whole effect.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
Holistic coding for faces is shown in several illusions that demonstrate integration of the percept across the entire face. The illusions occur upright but, crucially, not inverted.
