Redrawing the Map and Resetting the Time: Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences (2003, background): “…the hands, and more general body movements are perceived as meaningful (as being goal-directed), and are important for a perceptual (nonconceptual) understanding of the intentions and dispositions of other persons as well as for social reinforcement (see review by Allison, Puce, and McCarthy 2000).”
Event-related brain potential correlates of emotional face processing (2006, background): “The superior temporal sulcus is involved in the processing of dynamic aspects of faces, such as facial expression, eye and mouth movements ( Allison, Puce, & McCarthy, 2000; see also Puce, Epling, Thompson, & Carrick, 2006, this issue).”
Brain Activity Evoked by the Perception of Human Walking: Controlling for Meaningful Coherent Motion (2003, background): “Thus, the pattern of amplitude differences observed in this study is equally consistent with an emerging understanding of the importance of the STS as one component of a larger system involved in interpreting the emotional and social valence of motion (Allison et al., 2000; Adolphs, 2003).”
A PET Exploration of the Neural Mechanisms Involved in Reciprocal Imitation (2002, background): “The superior temporal region is known to be activated by observation of socially meaningful hand gestures, suggesting that it is sensitive to stimuli that signal the actions of another individual (Hietanen and Perrett, 1993; Allison et al., 2000).”
The role of prediction in social neuroscience (2012, background): “The superior temporal sulcus (STS) is involved in the perception of biological motion and in inferring the intentions or goals from biological motion (Perrett and Emery, 1994; Allison et al., 2000; Jellema et al., 2000), and has been implicated in the mirroring network (Molenberghs et al., 2010).

Live face-to-face interaction during fMRI: a new tool for social cognitive neuroscience (2010, neutral): “The rpSTS is known to be a critical site for the perception of biological motion, such as shifts in eye gaze, human walking, or reaching (reviewed in, (Allison et al., 2000).”
What Do Mirror Neurons Contribute to Human Social Cognition (2008, background): “the critical importance of the perception of the head- and eye-movements of others for tracking their attention and detecting their prior intentions, Allison et al. (2000) have suggested that there may be a purely perceptual network of ‘social perception’ involving the STS, the amygdala and the orbi”
When less means more: deactivations during encoding that predict subsequent memory (2004, background): “They also suggest hypothetical processes for different TID regions, such as emotional processes for the posterior midline region (posterior cingulate, precuneus) (Maddock, 1999), and detection of biological motion for the temporoparietal region (Allison et al., 2000).”
Five Facets of Musical Expression: A Psychologist's Perspective on Music Performance (2003, background): “This involves complex, dynamic and non-compensatory temporal patterns that are processed by the left hemisphere (Natale, 1977; Peretz, 1990), possibly by brain regions adjacent to those that analyse biological motion in vision, like the superior temporal sulcus (Allison et al., 2000).”
Recognizing moving faces: a psychological and neural synthesis. (2002, background): “Biological motion of the whole body, hands, eyes, and mouth also activates the STS [ 28 ].”
How (and where) does moral judgment work? (2002, background): “Its primary function appears to be the perception and representation of socially significant information, particularly from biological motion cues, which are crucial for making inferences about the beliefs and intentions of others [36, 40 ].”
