DOI: 10.1002/pchj.564
Abstract: Abstract We have previously suggested a distinction in the brain processes governing biological and artifactual stimuli. One of the best examples of the biological category consists of human faces, the perception of which appears to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.earlhumdev.2020.105227
Abstract: The question of whether humans react differentially to face-like versus non face-like light stimulation in the prenatal period has been much discussed, but to date has remained unresolved. In this feasibility study we have come… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2011453117
Abstract: At the beginning of life, inexperienced babies and human fetuses, domestic chicks, and monkeys exhibit a preference for faces and face-like configurations (three blobs arranged like an upside-down triangle). Because all of these species have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhad135
Abstract: The neural basis of configural processing has been extensively studied by exploiting face inversion during recognition, and growing evidence has revealed that word inversion also involves changes in configuration. However, the neural dynamics of face-like… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/03010066211055983
Abstract: The theory of universal emotions suggests that certain emotions such as fear, anger, disgust, sadness, surprise and happiness can be encountered cross-culturally. These emotions are expressed using specific facial movements that enable human communication. More… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/sym12050707
Abstract: This study set out to investigate whether and how aesthetic evaluations of different types of symmetric, as well as abstract vs. representational patterns are modulated by art expertise. To this end, we utilized abstract asymmetric,… read more here.
