Visual Hypoemotionality as a Symptom of Visual-Limbic Disconnection in Man

Multisensory integration of emotional faces and voices in schizophrenics

“…Further research is needed to disentangle the role of on line integration and that of post-perceptual influences due to attentional factors. The observed pattern might also be partly related to a phenomenon of auditory hypoemotionality, similar to the pattern of visual hypoemotionality reported by Bauer (1982). Alternatively, there could be a higher dominance of visual (or just facial) inputs over auditory (or just vocal) ones in this group.…”

White matter structures associated with emotional intelligence: Evidence from diffusion tensor imaging

“…Furthermore, amygdala lesions also have deleterious consequences on primate social behavior [Amaral, 2002]. Consistent with the fact that the ILF connects the visual cortex with the fusiform gyrus and the amygdala, symptoms caused by lesions of the ILF include prosopagnosia (a disorder of facial perception), and visual hypoemotionality (a deficit of emotions evoked visually with preserved emotional responses to nonvisual stimuli) [Bauer, 1982;Benson et al, 1974;Catani et al, 2003]. In summary, the highly integrated ILF is suggested to play a key role in interpersonal EI by causing to an increase in brain function related to the processing of facial, emotional, and paralinguistic information.…”

Parallel pattern processing and visual agnosia.

“…There were 12 young controls , Experiment ib) and 10 age-matched controls (ages ranging between 55 and 71). In addition to this, data are also reported from a brain-damaged control subject: L. L'S case details have been previously reported by Bauer (1982Bauer ( , 1984. L was involved in a severe motorbike accident in 1980, resulting in bilateral traumatic haematomas of the occipitotemporal regions and posterior temporal lobes.…”
