I use a combination of semi-natural and conventional laboratory tests, combined with neurobiological approaches, to assess cognition. I have studied apes, monkeys, wild birds, rats, bats, mice, children, and adult humans. These investigations were conducted in the laboratory, using operant and open-field paradigms to measure cognitive function, and in the field with wild populations. I have used lesion studies, volumetric comparisons, pharmacological interventions, and comparative methods to assess brain function.

    Mediterranean Journal of Clinical Psychology ISSN 2282-1619 Vol 7, n 1, 2019-Supplementum Psychology and Psychopathology of the Mask Faces in the Brain Pietro Perconti 1*, Gesualdo La Porta 1 Abstract In this paper it will be investigated the distinction – supported by experimental data – of two different degrees within the so-called face perception: 1) The automatic perception/detection of faces; 2) The recognition of a specific face, that concerns personal meanings association – a story, we could say – to that first automatic perceptual configuration. In general, the first degree is a basic perception process, a universal, innate and early capacity belonging to all human beings. It includes three face-selective regions in the brain, with the OFA and the STS who process the partial data of faces, and the FFA that “produces” the overall basic form. The second degree consists in a complex recognition process, which implies the activation of many cerebral areas with different functions such as, for example, the subcortical regions responsible for emotions modulation (amygdala, insula), the intraparietal sulcus, the auditory cortex. It associates a given perceptual pattern with specific semantic entities, which compose a qualitative complex of experience, knowledge and subjective understanding. 1 Department of Cognitive Science (COSPECS), University of Messina, Italy E-mail corresponding author: [email protected] Keywords: Face recognition; Emotion, Experience; Mind-reading; Pareidolia; Prosopagnosia; Social cognition.

Wenger Associate Professor of Cognitive Psychology Thesis Advisor Cathleen M. Moore Professor of Cognitive Psychology Reginald B. Adams, Jr. Assistant Professor of Social Psychology Melvin M. Mark Professor of Social Psychology Head of the Department of Psychology * Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT This study examined the extent to which holism in visual perception can be revealed by way of the presence or absence of crowding. Martelli, Majaj, and Pelli (2005) used crowding to propose an operational definition for holism. Specifically, they argued that holistic perception of an object is implicated if that object can be identified when the entire object is presented within an isolation field (defined as an area proportional to one-half eccentricity). Conversely, parts- based processing is implicated if identification is impaired when the entire object is within an isolation field, with an attenuation or elimination of that impairment when each part of the object is isolated by critical spacing. Martelli et al. found evidence of crowding—increases in threshold contrast as a function of eccentricity for faces and words—suggesting that foveally-presented objects are processed holistically, and peripherally-presented objects are processed by parts.

    Perception & Psychophysics 2002, 64 (2), 220-229 Visual speech information for face recognition LAWRENCE D. ROSENBLUM, DEBORAH A. YAKEL, NASER BASEER, ANJANI PANCHAL, BRYNN C. NODARSE, and RYAN P. NIEHUS University of California, Riverside, California Two experiments test whether isolated visible speech movements can be used for face matching. Vis- ible speech information was isolated with a point-light methodology. Participants were asked to match articulating point-light faces to a fully illuminated articulatingface in an XAB task. The first experiment tested single-frame static face stimuli as a control. The results revealed that the participants were sig- nificantly better at matching the dynamic face stimuli than the static ones. Experiment 2 tested whether the observed dynamic advantage was based on the movement itself or on the fact that the dynamic stimuli consisted of many more static and ordered frames. For this purpose, frame rate was reduced, and the frames were shown in a random order, a correct order with incorrect relative timing, or a correct order with correct relativetiming. The results revealedbettermatching performance with the correctly ordered and timed frame stimuli, suggesting that matches were based on the actual movement itself.

  • What Was Molyneux's Question a Question About? Jonathan Cohen
    What Was Molyneux's Question a Question About? Jonathan Cohen (University of California, San Diego) and Mohan Matthen (University of Toronto)1 Nearly nine hundred years ago, the Andalusian Muslim statesman and philosopher, Abu Bakr ibn Tufail (1105-1185), conjectured that all sensory qualities were material, and inferred from this that they would have at least some characteristics that can be discerned independently of sensory experience. Thus, he said, if a newly sighted man encountered colours for the first time, he would experience them in ways consonant with (at least some) descriptions of colours he had been given while still unsighted. Or perhaps he meant something stronger, namely that the newly sighted man could actually recognize the colours on the basis of the descriptions he had been given while still unsighted.2 Of course, on either interpretation, ibn Tufail’s claim is controversial: for, granting that all sensory qualities are material, it may be that at least some material qualities are known to us only by our sensory experience of them—and so the newly sighted man might have no prior knowledge on which to hang the descriptions he was given of colour. Nevertheless, the conjecture prepares us for the realization that some material qualities might not be available to any sense, and others to more than one. The translation of ibn Tufail’s book into Latin by Edward Pococke in 1671 sparked a lively discussion of the empirical construction of concepts. (See Goodman, this volume.) William Molyneux pursued ibn Tufail's conjecture in a narrower and less controversial 1 This is a fully collaborative work of the two authors.

The aim of this paper is to review security and dependencies of water CI in relation to adverse human intervention.
