Journal ArticleDOI
Neural structures associated with recognition of facial expressions of basic emotions
TL;DR: The results support the hypotheses derived from neuropsychological findings, that recognition of disgust, fear and anger is based on separate neural systems, and that the output of these systems converges on frontal regions for further information processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of disgust. Perception of faces and emotions in Huntington's disease.
Reiner Sprengelmeyer,Andrew W. Young,Andrew J. Calder,Anke Karnat,Herwig W. Lange,Volker Hömberg,David I. Perrett,Duncan Rowland +7 more
TL;DR: Face perception and emotion recognition were investigated in a group of people with Huntington's disease and matched controls, showing that the recognition of some emotions is more impaired than others and disgust is a prime candidate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facial expression recognition across the adult life span.
Andrew J. Calder,Jill Keane,Tom Manly,Reiner Sprengelmeyer,Sophie K. Scott,Ian Nimmo-Smith,Andrew W. Young +6 more
TL;DR: The results are discussed in terms of studies from the neuropsychological and functional imaging literature that indicate that separate brain regions may underlie the emotions fear and disgust.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facial expression recognition in people with medicated and unmedicated Parkinson's disease.
Reiner Sprengelmeyer,Andrew W. Young,K. Mahn,Ulrike Schroeder,Dirk Woitalla,Th. Büttner,Wilfried Kuhn,Horst Przuntek +7 more
TL;DR: Although both Parkinson's disease groups showed impairments of facial expression recognition, the consistently worse recognition of disgust in the unmedicated group is consistent with the hypothesis from previous studies that brain regions modulated by dopaminergic neurons are involved in the Recognition of disgust.
