Rapid and dynamic processing of face pareidolia in the human brain

S. G. Wardle, J. Taubert, et al.

Discover the fascinating realm of face pareidolia, where our brain's face processing capabilities lead us to perceive faces in inanimate objects! In a cutting-edge study conducted by Susan G. Wardle, Jessica Taubert, Lina Teichmann, and Chris I. Baker, advanced fMRI and MEG neuroimaging reveal how illusory faces are initially processed like real faces but shift rapidly to resemble ordinary objects. Join us on this intriguing exploration of human cognition!
