Illustration of the experimental designs of Study 3. (a) During adaptation observers were adapted to one of two face-body combinations: a disgusted face was shown in an angry body context – as illustrated here – or a disgusted context; after presentation of an adaptation stimulus, observers were asked to indicate the facial expression by clicking on one of four buttons with the mouse (buttons are not to size). (b) On test trials, observers were shown a top-up adaptation stimulus and were asked to indicate facial expression by clicking on one of four buttons with the mouse. This was followed by a target facial expression (morph between disgusted to angry). Again, observers were asked to indicate the facial expression, this time by pressing one of two buttons on the response box. As before, all indicated timings include a sinusoidally modulated ramp into (100 ms) and out of the full image (100 ms). This was used to minimize retinal aftereffects.
