Journal ArticleDOI
Vicarious responses to pain in anterior cingulate cortex: is empathy a multisensory issue?
TL;DR: A shared neural substrate for felt and seen pain for aversive ecological events happening to strangers and in the absence of overt symbolic cues is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective deficit in personal moral judgment following damage to ventromedial prefrontal cortex
TL;DR: Compared to normal controls, patients were more willing to judge personal moral violations as acceptable behaviors in personal moral dilemmas, and they did so more quickly, which indicates that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex is necessary to oppose personalmoral violations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex differences in eye gaze and symbolic cueing of attention.
TL;DR: While peripheral cueing is equivalent in the male and female brains, the attention systems of the two sexes treat noninformative symbolic cues very differently, demonstrating that reduced orienting from central cues in males generalizes beyond gaze cues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seeing where your hands are
TL;DR: It is found that an ipsilesional visual stimulus could induce extinction of a contralesional tactile stimulus (cross-modal extinction) and that the visual stimulus operates in a reference system attached to the hand, and not in egocentric coordinates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropsychological Evidence of an Integrated Visuotactile Representation of Peripersonal Space in Humans
TL;DR: This study shows the existence of a visual peripersonal space centered on the hand in humans and its modulatory effects on tactile perception and explains the activity of bimodal neurons in premotor and parietal cortex of macaque.
