“…This is in line with previous VHF studies showing a LVF advantage for facial emotion perception (Alves et al, 2009;Safer, 1981;McKeever & Dixon, 1981;Suberi & McKeever, 1977;Landis et al, 1979;Strauss & Moscovitch, 1981). The majority studies claiming a right hemisphere superiority for facial emotion perception used only a small number of emotions.…”

“…In fact, it has been suggested that recognition memory responses and frequency estimation are not made from the same sources of information (Wells, 1974), although what these sources are and how they differ from each other is not altogether clear (Hintzman, 1976). 17 Multiple processing systems and multiple channel conceptions are today more the rule than the exception in the study of sensory processes (Graham & Nachmias, 1971;Trevarthen, 1968). sented in the left visual field (De Renzi Si Spinnler, 1966;Moscovitch, Scullion, & Christie, 1976), and (b) that the recognition of emotional expressions shows the same right-brain superiority (Suberi & McKeever, 1977).…”

Affect is considered by most contemporary theories to be postcognitive, that is, to occur only after considerable cognitive operations have been accomplished. Yet a number of experimental results on preferences, attitudes, impression formation, and de-_ cision making, as well as some clinical phenomena, suggest that affective judgments may be fairly independent of, and precede in time, the sorts of perceptual and cognitive operations commonly assumed to be the basis of these affective judgments. Affective reactions to stimuli are often the very first reactions of the organism, and for lower organisms they are the dominant reactions. Affective reactions can occur without extensive perceptual and cognitive encoding, are made with greater confidence than cognitive judgments, and can be made sooner. Experimental evidence is presented demonstrating that reliable affective discriminations (like-dislike ratings) can be made in the total absence of recognition memory (old-new judgments).Various differences between judgments based on affect and those based on perceptual and cognitive processes are examined. It is concluded that affect and cognition are under the control of separate and partially independent systems that can influence each other in a variety of ways, and that both constitute independent sources of effects in information processing.

“…Presently, there are two major theories: (i) the righthemisphere theory (e.g. Suberi & McKeever 1977;Ley & Bryden 1979;Borod et al 1997) suggests that the right hemisphere is predominantly processing all emotional information regardless of its valence; on the contrary, (ii) the valence theory (e.g. Davidson 1992) suggests that the two cerebral hemispheres are differentially involved in emotion processing, with the left hemisphere dominating positive emotions, whereas left hemisphere negative emotions are associated with higher righthemisphere activity.…”

Visual cues from faces provide important social information relating to individual identity, sexual attraction and emotional state. Behavioural and neurophysiological studies on both monkeys and sheep have shown that specialized skills and neural systems for processing these complex cues to guide behaviour have evolved in a number of mammals and are not present exclusively in humans. Indeed, there are remarkable similarities in the ways that faces are processed by the brain in humans and other mammalian species. While human studies with brain imaging and gross neurophysiological recording approaches have revealed global aspects of the face-processing network, they cannot investigate how information is encoded by specific neural networks. Single neuron electrophysiological recording approaches in both monkeys and sheep have, however, provided some insights into the neural encoding principles involved and, particularly, the presence of a remarkable degree of high-level encoding even at the level of a specific face. Recent developments that allow simultaneous recordings to be made from many hundreds of individual neurons are also beginning to reveal evidence for global aspects of a population-based code. This review will summarize what we have learned so far from these animalbased studies about the way the mammalian brain processes the faces and the emotions they can communicate, as well as associated capacities such as how identity and emotion cues are dissociated and how face imagery might be generated. It will also try to highlight what questions and advances in knowledge still challenge us in order to provide a complete understanding of just how brain networks perform this complex and important social recognition task.
