“…Several studies report that N170 lateralization to the right is the typical neural response when processing adult faces [Dawson et al, ; Luck, ; McPartland et al, ; Nguyen & Cunnington, ; Pegna, Khateb, Michel, & Landis, ; Rossion, Joyce, Cottrell, & Tarr, ] and infant faces [Brosch, Sander, & Scherer, ]. Nevertheless, some studies have not found this lateralization effect for infant faces in healthy controls, specifically mothers [Noll et al, ; Proverbio et al, ], or for adult faces in healthy females compared to males [Ji, Cao, & Xu, ; Godard, Leleu, Rebai, & Fiori, ; Proverbio, Riva, Martin, & Zani, ; Godard, ]. Thus, it remains an open question whether the typical response of women, and particularly mothers, is rather a lack of lateralization when presented with infant faces.…”
