A self-organizing neural network architecture for learning human-object interactions (2017, background): “tructs invariant object representations [8] and how neurons in the uperior temporal sulcus (STS) area encode actions in terms of paterns of body posture and motion [9,10] .”
A Biologically Inspired System for Action Recognition (2007, background): “might be found at dierent locations in the visual cortex such as STS, temporal cortex and prefrontal cortex [ 24 , 69, 47].”
Building a motor simulation de novo: Observation of dance by dancers (2006, result): “Although the current study also required subjects to imagine generating the movements, both studies demonstrate recruitment of the STS and intraparietal sulcus (IPS), as identified in Table 2.”
Extrastriate body area in human occipital cortex responds to the performance of motor actions (2004, neutral): “The activated area in lateral cortex corresponded to the EBA, which responds selectively to images of human bodies or body part”
A region of right posterior superior temporal sulcus responds to observed intentional actions. (2004, background): “…motion " – that is, the characteristic articulated motion of chordate animal bodies (e.g. Vaina, Solomon, Chowdhury, Sinha, & Belliveau, 2001; Grossman & Blake, 2002; Beauchamp, Lee, Haxby, & Martin, 2002; Pelphrey, Mitchell, McKeown, Goldstein, Allison, & McCarthy, 2003) or body and face…”
Differential selectivity for dynamic versus static information in face-selective cortical regions (2011, positive): “whether these ROIs, selective for dynamic faces in the STS, are distinct from regions previously implicated with biological motion perception (Grossman and Blake, 2002), action understanding (Saxe et al.”
Perception and production of biological movement in patients with early periventricular brain lesions. (2003, background): “…motion stimuli in healthy adults is located within regions of the posterior superior temporal sulcus, of the lingual gyrus at the cuneus border and over the intraparietal cortex (Grossman et al., 2000; GreÁzes et al., 2001; Grossman and Blake, 2001, 2002; Vaina et al., 2001; Servos et al., 2002).”
Brain Activity Evoked by the Perception of Human Walking: Controlling for Meaningful Coherent Motion (2003, background): “…as stimuli point-light displays of ambulating figures and compared the resulting activations with those evoked by the same display elements moving in a random or noncoherent manner (Bonda et al., 1996; Howard et al., 1996; Grèzes et al., 2001; Grossman and Blake, 2001, 2002; Vaina et al., 2001).”
Neural correlates of social and nonsocial emotions: An fMRI study (2006, positive): “Superior temporal gyrus is involved in understanding complex social signals in eye gaze, mouth movements, and body language (Grossman and Blake, 2002; Pelphrey et al., 2005; Puce et al., 2003).”
The neural dynamics of updating person impressions. (2013, background): “…of high-level person perception critical for social communication, for instance, biological motion (Allison et al., 2000; Vaina et al., 2001; Grossman and Blake, 2002; Pelphrey et al., 2003a; Puce and Perrett, 2003; Pelphrey et al., 2004a; Pelphrey et al., 2006) and facial expressions…”
Two Takes on the Social Brain: A Comparison of Theory of Mind Tasks (2007, methodology): “These stimuli have been used and validated previously (Grossman & Blake, 2002).”
Grasping the Intentions of Others: The Perceived Intentionality of an Action Influences Activity in the Superior Temporal Sulcus during Social Perception (2004, positive): “…posterior STS is involved in processing viewed biological motion (e.g., Beauchamp, Lee, Haxby, & Martin, 2003; Pelphrey, Mitchell, et al., 2003; Grossman & Blake, 2001, 2002; Vaina, Solomon, Chowdhury, Sinha, & Belliveau, 2001; Grèzes et al., 2001; for reviews, see Allison et al., 2000;…”
