Stimulus frequency: Determinant of perception or response?

Stimulus-response compatability for moving stimuli: perception of affordances or directional coding?

Michaels reported a compatibility effect in which responses were fastest at the destination of a moving stimulus; she interpreted this "destination" compatibility effect in terms of catching actions "afforded" by the stimulus motion. The present study evaluated implications of the catching-affordance account and compared them with those of an account based on spatial coding of relative directio...

The human primary somatosensory cortex response contains components related to stimulus frequency and perception in a frequency discrimination task.

Somatosensory stimulation of primary somatosensory cortex (SI) using frequency discrimination offers a direct, well-defined and accessible way of studying cortical decisions at the locus of early input processing. Animal studies have identified and classified the neuronal responses in SI but they have not yet resolved whether during prolonged stimulation the collective SI response just passivel...

Stimulus-driven brain oscillations in the alpha range: entrainment of intrinsic rhythms or frequency-following response?

Stimulus Context in Emotion Perception

We review recent work demonstrating consistent context effects during emotion perception. Visual scenes, voices, bodies, other faces, cultural orientation, and even words shape how emotion is perceived in a face, calling into question the still-common assumption that the emotional state of a person is written on and can be read from the face like words on a page. Incorporating context during em...
