Abstract
While some studies have shown that the right occipital face area (OFA) processes objects for which we have extensive visual expertise, these findings are scarce when viewed in the context of the broader literature which typically does not report any OFA analyses. We therefore wondered if the several...

While some studies have shown that the right occipital face area (OFA) processes objects for which we have extensive visual expertise, these findings are scarce when viewed in the context of the broader literature which typically does not report any OFA analyses. We therefore wondered if the several positive findings were simply reported when they had occurred spuriously, or actually reflected a true effect. The p-curve is a relatively new form of meta-analysis that enables researchers to assess the evidential value for any given effect. We therefore tested the presence of neuroimaging expertise effects in the right OFA through a p-curve analysis. In support of the expertise hypothesis, our results show that the right occipital face area does indeed appear altered in visual expertise. These data complement recent neuropsychological work hinting that the OFA is utilised in non-face recognition. However, further well powered replications will be required in order to confirm the robustness of the OFA’s haemodynamic responsiveness in object expertise perception. |
