Face Feature Change Detection Ability in Developmental Prosopagnosia and Super-Recognisers

open access: yesBrain Sciences
In non-clinical populations, facial features (eyes, nose, mouth) may vary in their contribution to face identity perception. Changes to whole faces are easier to detect than changes to individual features, and eye changes are typically easier to detect ...

Face Processing Improvements in Prosopagnosia: Successes and Failures over the last 50 years

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Clinicians and researchers have widely believed that face processing cannot be improved in prosopagnosia. Though more than a dozen reported studies have attempted to enhance face processing in prosopagnosics over the last 50 years, evidence for ...

open access: yesVision, 2022
Right temporal variant of frontotemporal dementia (rtv-FTD) represents an uncommon and recently described frontotemporal dementia (FTD) entity presenting with symptoms in many ways comparable to those of the frontal or behavioral variant of FTD (bv-FTD).

Picture naming: Stereoelectroencephalography and connectivity insights

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 3967-3979, August 2026.
Abstract Objective This study investigates the neural substrates of picture naming (PN) using stereoelectroencephalographic (SEEG) stimulations and evaluates the contribution of white matter (WM) fascicles related to the basal temporal language area (BTLA) to the broader functional PN network.

Visual agnosia and prosopagnosia secondary to melanoma metástases: Case report

open access: yesDementia & Neuropsychologia
The association of visual agnosia and prosopagnosia with cerebral metastasis is very rare. The presence of symmetric and bilateral cerebral metastases of melanoma is also uncommon. We report the case of a 34 year-old man who was admitted to hospital with

‘I used to walk around the playground wondering where all my friends had gone’: The reflections of how adults with developmental prosopagnosia made friends in childhood

open access: yesBritish Journal of Special Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 261-270, June 2026.
Abstract Current research into developmental prosopagnosia (DP) estimates a high prevalence rate in the general population, but there exist many gaps in the research. More needs to be learned about the lived experience of those with DP and how to identify it in children. Using reflexive thematic analysis, this study explored the lived experience of how

Face and Word Recognition Can Be Selectively Affected by Brain Injury or Developmental Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Face and word recognition have traditionally been thought to rely on highly specialised and relatively independent cognitive processes. Some of the strongest evidence for this has come from patients with seemingly category-specific visual perceptual ...
