Unequal impairment in the recognition of positive and negative emotions after right hemisphere lesions: A left hemisphere bias for happy faces (2011)
Journal Article
Nijboer, T. C. W., & Jellema, T. (2012). Unequal impairment in the recognition of positive and negative emotions after right hemisphere lesions: A left hemisphere bias for happy faces. Journal of neuropsychology, 6(1), 79-93. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1748-6653.2011.02007.x

The processing of several important aspects of a human face was investigated in a single patient (LZ), who had a large infarct of the right hemisphere involving the parietal, and temporal lobes with extensions into the frontal region. LZ showed selec... Read More about Unequal impairment in the recognition of positive and negative emotions after right hemisphere lesions: A left hemisphere bias for happy faces.

Resolving ambiguous behavioral intentions by means of involuntary prioritization of gaze processing (2011)
Journal Article
Jellema, T., & Hudson, M. (2011). Resolving ambiguous behavioral intentions by means of involuntary prioritization of gaze processing. Emotion, 11(3), 681-686. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0023264

Anticipation of others' actions is of paramount importance in social interactions. Cues such as gaze direction and facial expressions can be informative, but can also produce ambiguity with respect to others' intentions. We investigated the combined...

To investigate form-related activity inmotion-sensitive cortical areas, we recorded cell responses to animate implied motion in macaque middle temporal (MT) and medial superior temporal (MST) cortex and investigated these areas using fMRI in humans....

Visual aftereffects for walking actions reveal underlying neural mechanisms for action recognition (2010)
Journal Article
Barraclough, N., & Jellema, T. (2011). Visual aftereffects for walking actions reveal underlying neural mechanisms for action recognition. Psychological science : a journal of the American Psychological Society / APS, 22(1), 87-94. https://doi.org/10.1177/0956797610391910

The results of this study illustrate a new high-level visual aftereffect: Observing actors walking forward, without horizontal translation, makes subsequent actors appear to walk backward, and the opposite effect is obtained after observing backward...

Categorical perception of morphed objects using a free-naming experiment (2010)
Journal Article
Hartendorp, M. O., Van der Stigchel, S., Burnett, H. G., Jellema, T., Eilers, P. H., & Postma, A. (2010). Categorical perception of morphed objects using a free-naming experiment. Visual Cognition, 18(9), 1320-1347. https://doi.org/10.1080/13506285.2010.482774

Morphed figures entail a dominant and nondominant interpretation. Testing perception of morphed objects using forced-choice methods demonstrates that morphed figures are perceived as their dominant interpretation ("categorical perception", or CP). Us...

Anticipating intentional actions: the effect of eye gaze direction on the judgment of head rotation (2009)
Journal Article
Hudson, M., Liu, C. H., & Jellema, T. (2009). Anticipating intentional actions: the effect of eye gaze direction on the judgment of head rotation. Cognition, 112(3), 423-434. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cognition.2009.06.011

Using a representational momentum paradigm, this study investigated the hypothesis that judgments of how far another agent's head has rotated are influenced by the perceived gaze direction of the head. Participants observed a video-clip of a face rot... Read More about Anticipating intentional actions: the effect of eye gaze direction on the judgment of head rotation.

Involuntary interpretation of social cues is compromised in autism spectrum disorders (2009)
Journal Article
Jellema, T., Lorteije, J., van Rijn, S., van t' Wout, M., de Haan, E., van Engeland, H., & Kemner, C. (2009). Involuntary interpretation of social cues is compromised in autism spectrum disorders. Autism Research, 2(4), 192-204. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.83

A new social distance judgment task was used to measure quantitatively the extent to which social cues are immediately and involuntary interpreted by typically developing (TD) individuals and by individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The t... Read More about Involuntary interpretation of social cues is compromised in autism spectrum disorders.

Deficits in implicit attention to social signals in schizophrenia and high risk groups: Behavioural evidence from a new illusion (2009)
Journal Article
van 't Wout, M., van Rijn, S., Jellema, T., Kahn, R. S., & Aleman, A. (2009). Deficits in implicit attention to social signals in schizophrenia and high risk groups: Behavioural evidence from a new illusion. PLoS ONE, 4(5), e5581. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0005581

Background An increasing body of evidence suggests that the apparent social impairments observed in schizophrenia may arise from deficits in social cognitive processing capacities. The ability to process basic social cues, such as gaze direction and...

Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas (2006)
Journal Article

Viewing static photographs of objects in motion evokes higher fMRI activation in the human medial temporal complex ( MT+) than looking at similar photographs without this implied motion. As MT+ is traditionally thought to be involved in motion percep... Read More about Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas.

Temporal characteristics of neuronal sources for implied motion perception (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lorteije, J., & Jellema, T. Temporal characteristics of neuronal sources for implied motion perception

Viewing photographs of objects in motion evokes higher fMRI activation in human MT+ than similar photographs without this implied motion. MT+ is traditionally considered to be involved in motion perception. Therefore, this finding suggests feedback f...

Evoked cortical field potentials are widely used in neurophysiological studies into cortical functioning, but insight in the underlying neural mechanisms is severely hampered by ambiguities in the interpretation of the field potentials. The present s... Read More about Sequential activation of microcircuits underlying somatosensory-evoked potentials in rat neocortex.

Coding of visible and hidden actions (2002)
Book Chapter
Jellema, T., & Perrett, D. (2002). Coding of visible and hidden actions. In W. Prinz, & B. Hommel (Eds.), Common Mechanisms in Perception and Action (356-380). Oxford University Press

We review the properties of cells in the temporal cortex of the macaque monkey, which are sensitive to visual cues arising from the face and body and their movements. We speculate that the responses of populations of cells in the cortex of the anteri... Read More about Coding of visible and hidden actions.
