Distinct representations in occipito-temporal, parietal, and premotor cortex during action perception revealed by fMRI and computational modeling
Ürgen, Burcu A.; Pehlivan, S.; Saygın, A. (Elsevier, 2019)Visual processing of actions is supported by a network consisting of occipito-temporal, parietal, and premotor regions in the human brain, known as the Action Observation Network (AON). In the present study, we investigate ... -
Do robots distract us as much as humans? The effect of human-like appearance and perceptual load
Ürgen, Burcu A.; Yılmaz, Selin; Güneysu, İlayda; Cerrahoğlu, Begüm; Dinçer, Ece (IEEE Computer Society, 2020)Attention is an important mechanism for solving certain tasks, but our environment can distract us via irrelevant information. As robots increasingly become part of our lives, one important question is whether they could ... -
Does the appearance of an agent affect how we perceive his/her voice? Audio-visual predictive processes in human-robot interaction
Sarıgül, Büşra; Saltık, İmge; Hokelek, Batuhan; Ürgen, Burcu A. (IEEE Computer Society, 2020)Robots increasingly become part of our lives. How we perceive and predict their behavior has been an important issue in HRI. To address this issue, we adapted a well-established prediction paradigm from cognitive science ... -
A parietal region processing numerosity of observed actions: An FMRI study
Sawamura, H.; Ürgen, Burcu A.; Corbo, D.; Orban, G. A. (Wiley, 2020-07)When observing others' behavior, it is important to perceive not only the identity of the observed actions (OAs), but also the number of times they were performed. Given the mounting evidence implicating posterior parietal ... -
Predictive processing account of action perception: evidence from effective connectivity in the actionobservation network
Ürgen, Burcu A.; Saygın, A. P. (Elsevier, 2020)Visual perception of actions is supported by a network of brain regions in the occipito-temporal, parietal, and premotor cortex in the primate brain, known as the Action Observation Network (AON). Although there is a growing ... -
The unique role of parietal cortex in action observation: Functional organization for communicative and manipulative actions
Ürgen, Burcu A.; Orban, G. A. (Elsevier BV., 2021-08-15)Action observation is supported by a network of regions in occipito-temporal, parietal, and premotor cortex in primates. Recent research suggests that the parietal node has regions dedicated to different action classes ...
