Faces evoke spatially differentiated patterns of BOLD activation and deactivation.
Pelphrey, Kevin A; Mack, Peter B; Song, Allen; Güzeldere, Güven; McCarthy, Gregory (Neuroreport, 2003-05-23)Using fMRI techniques sensitive to blood oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) contrast, we measured brain activity in participants (n=8) as they viewed images of faces presented periodically within a continuously changing montage ... -
Functional imaging of numerical processing in adults and 4-y-old children.
Cantlon, Jessica F; Brannon, Elizabeth M; Carter, Elizabeth J; Pelphrey, Kevin A (PLoS biology, 2006-05-01)Adult humans, infants, pre-school children, and non-human animals appear to share a system of approximate numerical processing for non-symbolic stimuli such as arrays of dots or sequences of tones. Behavioral studies of ... -
Inter-Parietal White Matter Development Predicts Numerical Performance in Young Children.
Cantlon, Jessica F; Davis, Simon W; Libertus, Melissa E; Kahane, Jill; Brannon, Elizabeth M; Pelphrey, Kevin A (Learn Individ Differ, 2011-12)In an effort to understand the role of interhemispheric transfer in numerical development, we investigated the relationship between children's developing knowledge of numbers and the integrity of their white matter connections ... -
When strangers pass: processing of mutual and averted social gaze in the superior temporal sulcus.
Pelphrey, Kevin A; Viola, Ronald J; McCarthy, Gregory (Psychol Sci, 2004-09)Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we investigated brain activity evoked by mutual and averted gaze in a compelling and commonly experienced social encounter. Through virtual-reality goggles, subjects viewed ...
