DOI: 10.1007/s10803-020-04707-w
Abstract: Participants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (n = 121, mean [SD] age: 14.6 [8.0] years) and typically developing (TD) controls (n = 40, 16.4 [13.3] years) were presented with a series of videos representing biological motion on one side… read more here.

Biological motion during inflammation in humans
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Brain, Behavior, and Immunity"
DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2019.11.019
Abstract: Biological motion is a powerful perceptual cue that can reveal important information about the inner state of an individual. Activation of inflammatory processes likely leads to changes in gait, posture, and mobility patterns, but the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2021.107996
Abstract: We conducted two studies to test how deaf native signed language users perceive biological motions. We created 18 Biological Motion point-light displays (PLDs) depicting everyday human actions, and 18 Scrambled control PLDs. First, we conducted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-19851-8
Abstract: The visual system is able to recognize body motion from impoverished stimuli. This requires combining stimulus information with visual priors. We present a new visual illusion showing that one of these priors is the assumption… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-96649-1
Abstract: Linguistic labels exert a particularly strong top-down influence on perception. The potency of this influence has been ascribed to their ability to evoke category-diagnostic features of concepts. In doing this, they facilitate the formation of… read more here.

Biological motion distorts size perception
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/srep42576
Abstract: Visual illusions explore the limits of sensory processing and provide an ideal testbed to study perception. Size illusions – stimuli whose size is consistently misperceived – do not only result from sensory cues, but can… read more here.

Neural responses to biological motion distinguish autistic and schizotypal traits

DOI: 10.1093/scan/nsad011
Abstract: Difficulties in social interactions are common to both autism and schizophrenia, and contribute to correlated autistic and schizotypal traits in the neurotypical population. It remains unresolved whether this represents a shared etiology or a superficial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1167/17.6.4
Abstract: Using an "information meter" provided by ideal observer analysis, we measured the efficiency with which human observers processed different walking stimuli against luminance noise and spatial uncertainty to either detect the presence of a walker… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0956797618778498
Abstract: The ability to navigate through crowds of moving people accurately, efficiently, and without causing collisions is essential for our day-to-day lives. Vision provides key information about one’s own self-motion as well as the motions of… read more here.
