FMRI Responses to Video and Point-Light Displays of Moving Humans and Manipulable Objects
fMRI Responses to Video and Point-Light Displays of Moving Humans and Manipulable Objects is a scholarly work by James V. Haxby and Michael S Beauchamp, published in 2003 in ''Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience''. The main subjects of the publication include neuroscience, visual cortex, embodied cognition, face perception, visual perception, stimulus, motion perception, superior temporal sulcus, computer vision, middle temporal gyrus, temporal lobe, fusiform gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus, communication, perception, psychology, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and biological motion. The relatively weak responses observed to point-light displays in the ventral temporal cortex suggests that form, color, and texture (present in video but not point-light displays) are the main contributors to ventral temporal activity.
