FFA and MT+ responses. Bar plots of the average responses in the schizophrenic patients (SCZ) and controls (CON) subjects to faces and places (A) and to moving and stationary (i.e., “still”) circles (B) are shown. In C, responses of MT+ to moving vs. stationary circles at different contrast levels reveal that MT+ showed a similar degree of sensitivity to low contrast stimuli (a characteristic feature of MT+) in both groups. FFA, fusiform face area; MT+, middle temporal area; CON, control group and SCZ, schizophrenia group.
