Gaze-cueing task (experiment 2): Gaze-following effects in patients and controls. The time course of gaze congruent and incongruent saccades is shown as a function of emotional expressions. Here, the term congruency refers only to the gaze direction of the faces and not to the location of the target letter. Gaze congruent and incongruent saccades were assessed when the cue was presented and before the target letter appeared on the screen. As the figure illustrates, gaze-following effects for 1st and 2nd saccades (more congruent than incongruent saccades) can be seen for controls, whereas patients only show gaze-following for the 2nd saccade. Error bars indicate SEM.
