Attention Orienting by Gaze and Facial Expressions Across Development
Neath, Karly; Nilsen, Elizabeth S.; Gittsovich, Katarzyna; Itier, Roxane J. (APA, 2013-06)Processing of facial expressions has been shown to potentiate orienting of attention toward the direction signaled by gaze in adults, an important social–cognitive function. However, little is known about how this social ... -
Attention orienting by gaze and facial expressions across development

(Ovid, 2013-06)Processing of facial expressions has been shown to potentiate orienting of attention toward the direction signaled by gaze in adults, an important social-cognitive function. However, little is known about how this social ... -
Facial expression discrimination varies with presentation time but not with fixation on features: A backward masking study using eye-tracking
Neath, Karly; Itier, Roxane J. (Taylor & Francis, 2014-01-02)The current study investigated the effects of presentation time and fixation to expression-specific diagnostic features on emotion discrimination performance, in a backward masking task. While no differences were found ... -
Fixation to features and neural processing of facial expressions in a gender discrimination task
Neath, Karly; Itier, Roxane J. (Elsevier, 2015-10-01)Early face encoding, as reflected by the N170 ERP component, is sensitive to fixation to the eyes. Whether this sensitivity varies with facial expressions of emotion and can also be seen on other ERP components such as P1 ... -
Neural Processing of Fearful and Happy Facial Expressions: Effects of Fixation to Facial Features and Task Demands
Neath, Karly (University of Waterloo, 2015-11-25)The current literature regarding the time course of facial expression processing is inconsistent and early emotion effects are debated. Facial expressions are well-known to be characterized by “diagnostic” facial features ... -
The use of facial features in facial expression discrimination
Neath, Karly (University of Waterloo, 2012-02-27)The present four studies are the first to examine the effect of presentation time on accurate facial expression discrimination while concurrently using eye movement monitoring to ensure fixation to specific features during ...
