Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have difficuly in recognizing bodies and faces, which are more pronounced in children than adults. If such difficulties originate from dysfunction of the extrastriate body area (EBA) and the fusiform face area (FFA), activation in these regions might be more atypical in children than in adults. We preformed functional magnetic resonance imaging while...
To comprehend figurative utterances such as metaphor or sarcasm, a listener must both judge the literal meaning of the statement and infer the speaker’s intended meaning (mentalizing; Amodio and Frith, 2006). To delineate the neural substrates of pragmatic comprehension, we conducted functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with 20 normal adult volunteers. Participants read short stories followed...
The “warning effect” refers to the decrease in motor response reaction times to a target when its presentation is preceded by a stimulus indicating that the target will appear shortly. We hypothesized that cue presentation phasically enhances alertness, which in turn facilitates the preparation of a motor response. To test this hypothesis, we conducted functional magnetic resonance imaging during...
