Visual category‐selectivity for faces, places and objects emerges along different developmental trajectories
KS Scherf, M Behrmann, K Humphreys… - Developmental …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
The organization of category‐selective regions in ventral visual cortex is well characterized
in human adults. We investigated a crucial, previously unaddressed, question about how this …

Brain basis of developmental change in visuospatial working memory
Although brain changes associated with the acquisition of cognitive abilities in early
childhood involve increasing localized specialization, little is known about the brain changes …

A two-hit model of autism: Adolescence as the second hit
Adolescence brings dramatic changes in behavior and neural organization. Unfortunately,
for some 30% of individuals with autism, there is marked decline in adaptive functioning …

Designing serious game interventions for individuals with autism
The design of “Serious games” that use game components (eg, storyline, long-term goals,
rewards) to create engaging learning experiences has increased in recent years. We examine …

Connecting developmental trajectories: Biases in face processing from infancy to adulthood
The nature of the developmental trajectory of face recognition abilities from infancy through
adulthood is multifaceted and currently not well understood. We argue that the …

A theoretical rut: revisiting and critically evaluating the generalized under/over‐connectivity hypothesis of autism
In 2004, two papers proposed that pervasive functional under‐connectivity (Just et al., ) or a
trade‐off between excessive local connectivity at the cost of distal under‐connectivity (…

A quantitative meta-analysis of face recognition deficits in autism: 40 years of research.
JW Griffin, R Bauer, KS Scherf - Psychological Bulletin, 2021 - psycnet.apa.org
The ability to recognize an individual face is essential to human social interaction. Even subtle
errors in this process can have huge implications for the way we relate to social partners. …
