Humans tend to shift attention according to others' eye-gaze direction. This is a core ability
as it permits to create pervasive relationships among individuals and with the environment …

Gaze acts from an early age as a cue to orient attention and, thereafter, to infer our social
partners' intentions, thoughts, and emotions. Variants of the attentional orienting paradigm …

Understanding the origins of human social cognition is a central challenge in contemporary
science. In recent decades, the idea of a 'Theory of Mind'(ToM) has emerged as the most …

Background Individuals are able to perform goal-directed behaviors thanks to executive
functions. According to the neurovisceral integration model, executive functions are …

Subtle to no attentional differences have been broadly observed when using gaze and
arrows as orienting cues. However, recent studies have found opposite effects when they …

Background. We investigated whether individuals with high levels of autistic traits integrate
relevant communicative signals, such as facial expression, when decoding eye-gaze …

Arrows and gaze stimuli lead to opposite spatial congruency effects. While standard
congruency effects are observed for arrows (faster responses for congruent conditions) …

In a spatial Stroop task, the eye-gaze target produces the reversed congruency effect—
responses become shorter when the gaze direction and its location are incongruent than …

From early ages, gaze acts as a cue to infer the interests, behaviours, thoughts and
emotions of social partners. Despite sharing attentional properties with other non‐social …

In the spatial Stroop task, an arrow target produces a spatial Stroop effect, whereas a gaze
target elicits a reversed congruency effect. The reversed congruency effect has been …
