Novel objects with causal schemas elicit selective responses in tool- and hand-selective lateral occipito-temporal cortex

2021-10-02

Abstract excerpt

<p>Tool-selective lateral occipito-temporal cortex (LOTC) responds preferentially to images of tools (hammers, brushes) relative to non-tool objects (clocks, shoes). What drives these responses? Tools have elongated shapes and are more likely to have motor associations, but another essential property is that they exert causal effects on the environment. We tested whether LOTC would respond to novel objects associa...
