Mirrored and rotated stimuli are not the same: A neuropsychological and lesion mapping study

O Martinaud, N Mirlink, S Bioux, E Bliaux… - Cortex, 2016 - Elsevier

Agnosia for mirror stimuli: A new case report with a small parietal lesion

O Martinaud, N Mirlink, S Bioux, E Bliaux… - Archives of Clinical …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Only seven cases of agnosia for mirror stimuli have been reported, always with an extensive

Mirror images and unilateral spatial neglect

JM Beis, JM Andre, A Barre, J Paysant - Neuropsychologia, 2001 - Elsevier
Responding correctly to a mirror image requires the creation of a rather peculiar form of dual
representation. Mirror agnosia and mirror ataxia, ie a deficit in reaching an object reflected in …

Normal people rarely confuse the mirror image of an object with a real object so long as they
realize they are looking into a mirror. We report a new neurological sign,'mirror agnosia' …

Not all visual symmetry is equal: Partially distinct neural bases for vertical and horizontal symmetry

Z Cattaneo, S Bona, J Silvanto - Neuropsychologia, 2017 - Elsevier
Visual mirror symmetry plays an important role in visual perception in both human and
animal vision; its importance is reflected in the fact that it can be extracted automatically …

The neural basis of mirror symmetry detection: A review

Z Cattaneo - Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 2017 - Taylor & Francis
The human visual system is extremely sensitive to the presence of bilateral (mirror)
symmetry. In this review, I summarise the results of recent work investigating the neural …

The role of the human extrastriate visual cortex in mirror symmetry discrimination: A TMS-adaptation study

Z Cattaneo, G Mattavelli, C Papagno, A Herbert… - Brain and …, 2011 - Elsevier

Mirror-image sensitivity and invariance in object and scene processing pathways

DD Dilks, JB Julian, J Kubilius, ES Spelke… - Journal of …, 2011 - Soc Neuroscience
Electrophysiological and behavioral studies in many species have demonstrated mirror-
image confusion for objects, perhaps because many objects are vertically symmetric (eg, a …

The causal role of the lateral occipital complex in visual mirror symmetry detection and grouping: An fMRI-guided TMS study

S Bona, A Herbert, C Toneatto, J Silvanto, Z Cattaneo - Cortex, 2014 - Elsevier
Despite the fact that bilateral mirror symmetry is an important characteristic of the visual
