“…In addition to the open question whether or not PD patients have impaired face expression processing, these previous studies have two important limitations: first, they solely used static stimulus presentation and, second, they relied only on the six basic facial expressions. Concerning the first point, a series of recent studies has shown, however, that perception of facial expressions when presented in their real-life dynamic form (Bülthoff et al, 2011), results in significantly different performance patterns (Ambadar et al, 2005; Cunningham and Wallraven, 2009) as well as involvement of different brain areas (Kilts et al, 2003; Sato et al, 2004; Yoshikawa and Sato, 2006; Trautmann et al, 2009; Perdikis et al, 2017) compared to processing of static expressions. The second, important aspect that has been neglected in previous studies is that in daily life, expressions do not only consist of the six basic expressions, but they also include a much wider range of communicational, conversational, and emotional expressions and facial gestures such as tiredness, boredom, flirting, etc.…”
