摘要: Objective: In order to evaluate whether face perception is intact or not in Williams syndrome (WS), the inversion effects (FIE) event-related potential (ERP) magnetoencephalography (MEG) were investigated three teenaged patients with WS. Methods: Responses inverted faces and upright compared using MEG for one 13 year old girl WS (subject A) ERP boys at 16 14 years of age (subjects B C, respectively). Results: Although age-matched control children showed FIE both studies, two subjects (A B) no all. The neurophysiological data subject was significantly different from those controls. On other hand, a boy C) typical same manner as Conclusions: difference between without explained merely by chronological age, simple delay mental ability discriminate among faces. absence may be related severity deficit dorsal pathway function that characteristic syndrome.
