Processing of auditory motion in inferior parietal lobule: evidence from transcranial magnetic stimulation.

abstract：:Prosody (i.e. speech melody) is an important cue to infer an interlocutor's emotional state, complementing information from face expression and body posture. Inferring fear from face expression is reported as impaired after amygdala lesions. It remains unclear whether this deficit is specific to face expression, or is...
