Citations in the corpus
- Developmental deficits in social perception in autism: the role of the amygdala and fusiform face area (2005, background): “The second report failing to show hypoactivation of the FFA in ASD was by Hadjikhani et al. (2004).”
- Responding to the emotions of others: dissociating forms of empathy through the study of typical and psychiatric populations. (2005, neutral): “…with autism viewing the neutral and emotional expressions of strangers (Critchley et al., 2000; Hall, Szechtman, & Nahmias, 2003; Hubl et al., 2003; Pierce, Muller, Ambrose, Allen, & Courchesne, 2001; Schultz et al., 2000); though, for contradictory findings, see (Hadjikhani et al., 2004).”
- Brain basis of human social interaction: from concepts to brain imaging. (2009, background): “79, 203); however, some studies have reported fusiform face responses in autistic subjects, associated with hypoactivation of other face processing regions, such as STS and inferior frontal cortex (84, 85).”
- The fusiform face area: a cortical region specialized for the perception of faces (2006, background): “Second, even if individuals with ASD lacked FFAs as claimed, this would not demonstrate the importance of experience for the development of the FFA, because these disorders also have a genetic component which could itself be responsible for the lack of an FFA.”
- Enhanced Perceptual Functioning in Autism: An Update, and Eight Principles of Autistic Perception (2006, background): “…a diminished activation in regions that are devoted to ‘‘higher order’’ (frontal) or ‘‘socially relevant’’ (e.g.: fusiform face area or FFA) tasks among non-autistics (but see Hadjikhani et al., 2004; and Pierce, Haist, Sedaghat&Courchesne, 2004, for evidence of typical levels of FFA activation).”
