TL;DR: Results showed improvement in RJA skills post training, relative to a pre-training test, which shows that with the use of objective measures and protocols grounded in methods of experimental psychology, it is possible to design efficient training of specific social cognitive mechanisms, which are the basis for more complex social skills.

TL;DR: Results show that the human perceptual system is sensitive to subtleties of human behavior, based on only subtle behavioral cues.

TL;DR: This article examined individual differences in sensitivity to human-like features of a robot's behavior and found that the fewer autistic traits participants had, the more sensitive they were to the difference between the conditions, without explicit awareness of the nature of the difference.

TL;DR: In a mobile eye-tracking experiment, it is shown that under natural interaction conditions, overt attentional orienting is not necessarily reflexively triggered by pointing gestures or a combination of gaze shifts and pointing gestures.

TL;DR: A topographic bias of ascending synaptic input timing that is balanced between inhibition and excitation and co-varies with in vivo first-spike latency is identified, implying that heterogeneity of synaptic inputs, intrinsic properties and temporal processing are functional principles that underlie the spatial organization of the central IC.
