| Ali Momen, Kurt Hugenberg, Eva Wies. Robots engage face-processing less strongly than humans. Frontiers in neuroergonomics. vol 3. 2024-01-18. PMID:38235446. |
robot faces often differ from human faces in terms of their facial features (e.g., lack of eyebrows) and spatial relationships between these features (e.g., disproportionately large eyes), which can influence the degree to which social brain [i.e., fusiform face area (ffa), superior temporal sulcus (sts); haxby et al., 2000] areas process them as social individuals that can be discriminated from other agents in terms of their perceptual features and person attributes. |

whereas the occipital face area was most responsive to the rate at which face parts (e.g., the mouth) changed, and face patches in the sts were mostly entrained by rhythmic changes in the eye region, the fusiform face area was the only subregion that was strongly entrained by the rhythmic changes in facial identity. |

here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging multivariate pattern analysis (fmri-mvpa) to ask whether spatial patterns of response in the core face regions (occipital face area - ofa, fusiform face area - ffa, superior temporal sulcus - sts) can be predicted across different participants by lower level properties of the stimulus. |
