The paper shows that decoding asymmetry in multivariate cross-classification can arise from signal-to-noise ratio differences between datasets, not necessarily complex neurocognitive mechanisms.

This study examines neural representations of socio-affective touch in adults with autism, finding intact cognitive understanding but lack of embodied resonance in somatosensory areas.

The paper investigates how social norms are inferred in humans using fMRI, finding that social congruency is represented in the mentalizing network but not in sensory areas.

This study uses multi-method brain imaging to show that dyscalculia involves both impaired non-symbolic magnitude representations and altered connectivity in brain regions.

The paper introduces a database of socio-affective touch expressions and validates them through experiments on naturalness and affective values.
