Journal ArticleDOI
Humor Comprehension and Appreciation: An fMRI Study
TL;DR: A parametric analysis showed that the left amygdala was activated in relation to subjective amusement, and it is hypothesize that the amygdala plays a key role in giving humor an emotional dimension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pantomimes are special gestures which rely on working memory
TL;DR: A specific working memory impairment associated with a deficit of pantomiming in the absence of any other disorders in the production of meaningful gestures suggested a way to modify the model to account for the data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hemispheric Specialization in Human Prefrontal Cortex for Resolving Certain and Uncertain Inferences
TL;DR: It is suggested that the right PFC has a critical role to play in reasoning about incompletely specified situations and that this role involves the maintenance of ambiguous mental representations that temper premature overinterpretation by the left hemisphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double dissociation between meaningful and meaningless gesture reproduction in apraxia.
TL;DR: A model of the normal processing of gestures to account for the complexity of the different patterns of apraxia has been proposed and recently refined by Cubelli et al. (2000).
Journal ArticleDOI
Perceiving What Is Reachable Depends on Motor Representations: Evidence from a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study
TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence that brain motor area participate in the visual determination of what is reachable, and how motor representations may feed the perceptual system with information about possible interactions with nearby objects and thus contribute to the perception of the boundary of peripersonal space.
