The Monetary Incentive Delay (MID) Task Induces Changes in Sensory Processing: ERP Evidence.

abstract：:The ventral temporal cortex (VTC) in humans includes functionally defined regions that preferentially respond to objects, faces, and places. Recent developmental studies suggest that the face selective region in the fusiform gyrus ('fusiform face area', FFA) undergoes a prolonged development involving substantial incr...
