Impaired spontaneous anthropomorphizing despite intact perception and social knowledge.
Humans spontaneously imbue the world with social meaning: we see not only emotions and intentional behaviors in humans and other animals, but also anger in the movements of thunderstorms and willful sabotage in crashing computers. Converging evidence supports a role for the amygdala, a collection of nuclei in the temporal lobe, in processing emotionally and socially relevant information. Here, ...
متن کاملIntact priming of patterns despite impaired memory.
The priming of patterns was examined in normal control subjects (NCS) and in the amnesic patient H.M., whose anterograde amnesia followed bilateral medial temporal-lobe excision 33 years earlier. Despite H.M.'s impaired recognition of the patterns, he demonstrated a pattern priming effect equivalent in magnitude to that of the NCS. The results demonstrated that intact priming with novel, nonver...
متن کاملImpaired face recognition does not preclude intact whole face perception
We studied intact and impaired processes in a prosopagnosic patient (RP). In Experiment 1, RP showed an inversion superiority effect with both faces and objects, with better performance when stimuli were presented upside down than in normal upright orientation. In Experiment 2, we studied the effect of face configuration directly by comparing matching performance with normal vs. scrambled faces...
متن کاملBlindness to form from motion despite intact static form perception and motion detection.
We studied the motion perception, including form and meaning generated by motion, in a hemianopic patient who also had visual perceptual impairments in her seeing hemifield as a result of a lesion in ventral extrastriate cortex. She was unable to recognise 2- or 3-dimensional forms, and even borders, generated by motion alone, failed to recognise mimed actions or the Johannson 'biological motio...
متن کاملImpaired speed perception but intact luminance contrast perception in people with one eye.
PURPOSE It is generally accepted that early visual deprivation from monocular enucleation (ME; the surgical removal of one eye) results in intact spatial vision. Yet, motion perception studies in this population yield inconsistent findings. Here, we investigated speed and luminance contrast perception in a group of ME individuals. METHODS Twelve ME participants (mean age = 24 years; mean age ...
