TI  - Face and shape repetition effects in humans: a spatio-temporal ERP study.
PG  - 1417-23
AB  - The neural bases of repetition effects for faces and non-significant shapes was 
      studied using Mooneys' faces presented upright (face) or upside down (shape) with 
      a repetition interval of 8 min 30 s-1. Scalp potentials and current density maps 
      on 30 electrodes were compatible with an involvement of the infero-temporal and 
      fusiform gyri (from 50 to at least 250 ms), mainly on the right, for both faces 
      and shapes; the hippocampus and adjacent areas (around 300 ms), specifically for 
      faces; the medial temporal lobes (450-650 ms) again independent of stimulus 
      meaning. These results suggest that the facilitation of perception due to 
      repetition involves both neocortical specialized areas and the medial temporal 
      lobe, with different timings of activation. They further suggest that memory 
      updating takes place more rapidly for faces than for meaningless shapes and that 
      face recognition may be, at least partly, functionally encapsulated.
