Category specificity in early perception: face and word N170 responses differ in both lateralization and habituation properties

Enhanced N170 ERP responses to both faces and visual words raises questions about category specific processing mechanisms during early perception and their neural basis. Topographic differences across word and face N170s might suggest a form of category specific processing in early perception - the...
