Time course and neural locus of the Flashed Face Distortion Effect.
Article in Vision research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Viewing a rapid sequence of face images shown in the periphery can lead to large caricature-like distortions in the perceived images, a phenomenon known as the Flashed Face Distortion Effect (FFDE). The mechanisms underlying FFDE are poorly understood. Here we examined the timing and sites of the adaptation processes giving rise to the FFDE. To investigate the effects of presentation rate, we maintained consistent trial lengths while assessing how variations in the temporal frequencies of face presentation influenced the magnitude of face distortion and the averaging of facial expressions. Over a wide range of temporal frequencies (1.2-60 Hz) tested, we observed a decrease in FFDE strength as the presentation rate increased. To probe the neural sites of FFDE, we varied whether successive faces were presented to the same or different eyes using a dichoptic display. Distortion effects were comparable for monocular, binocular, and interocular conditions, yet much larger than a control condition where faces were presented with a temporal interval between successive images, suggesting a cortical locus for FFDE.
