Researchers who first discussed the FFA initially claimed to have demonstrated that a particular brain region responds selectively for faces.
“As for the RTPJ, the researchers who first discussed the FFA initially claimed to have demonstrated that a particular brain region responds selectively for a specific kind of stimulus content, that is, faces.”

The current study raises issues that closely parallel those from an earlier debate about the fusiform face area (FFA).
“In questioning the claim that RTPJ is selective for belief attribution, the current study raises issues that closely parallel those from an earlier debate about another functionally defined region, the ''fusiform face area'' (FFA; Kanwisher et al. 1997;Kanwisher 2000).”
From Activity in Right Temporo-Parietal Junction is Not Selective for Theory-of-Mind (2008) · cites this paper as Kanwisher 2000
Gauthier et al. (2000) were able to identify an FFA in only 5 of 19 participants when using the criteria adopted by the Kanwisher group for functionally defining this region.
“As reported by Kanwisher [2000], Gauthier et al. [2000] were able to identify an FFA in only 5 of 19 participants when using the criteria adopted by the Kanwisher group forfunctionally defining this region.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
