Congenital prosopagnosia: face-blind from birth
M Behrmann, G Avidan - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2005 - cell.com
Congenital prosopagnosia refers to the deficit in face processing that is apparent from early
childhood in the absence of any underlying neurological basis and in the presence of intact …

[PDF][PDF] Differential processing of objects under various viewing conditions in the human lateral occipital complex
The invariant properties of human cortical neurons cannot be studied directly by fMRI due to
its limited spatial resolution. Here, we circumvented this limitation by using fMR adaptation, …

Center–periphery organization of human object areas
The organizing principles that govern the layout of human object-related areas are largely
unknown. Here we propose a new organizing principle in which object representations are …

Configural processing in autism and its relationship to face processing
Studies of the perceptual performance of individuals with autism have focused, to a large
extent, on two domains of visual behavior, one associated with face processing and the other …

Reduced structural connectivity in ventral visual cortex in congenital prosopagnosia
Using diffusion tensor imaging and tractography, we found that a disruption in structural
connectivity in ventral occipito-temporal cortex may be the neurobiological basis for the lifelong …

[HTML][HTML] The COVID-19 pandemic masks the way people perceive faces
The unprecedented efforts to minimize the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic introduce a new
arena for human face recognition in which faces are partially occluded with masks. Here, …

Contrast sensitivity in human visual areas and its relationship to object recognition
G Avidan, M Harel, T Hendler… - Journal of …, 2002 - journals.physiology.org
An important characteristic of visual perception is the fact that object recognition is largely
immune to changes in viewing conditions. This invariance is obtained within a sequence of …

Detailed exploration of face-related processing in congenital prosopagnosia: 1. Behavioral findings
We show that five individuals with congenital prosopagnosia (CP) are impaired at face
recognition and discrimination and do not exhibit the normal superiority for upright over inverted …

Impaired holistic processing in congenital prosopagnosia
It has long been argued that face processing requires disproportionate reliance on holistic
or configural processing, relative to that required for non-face object recognition, and that a …

Detailed exploration of face-related processing in congenital prosopagnosia: 2. Functional neuroimaging findings
Specific regions of the human occipito-temporal cortex are consistently activated in functional
imaging studies of face processing. To understand the contribution of these regions to face …
