Abstract Representations of Emotions Perceived From the Face, Body, and Whole-Person Expressions in the Left Postcentral Gyrus.

The 3 × 3 ANOVA for parameter estimates of mean activation with the factors stimulus Category (face, body, and whole-person) and Emotion (happiness, anger, and fear) showed a main effect for Emotion [ F (2,38) = 7.34, p = 0.002] and a weak trend towards main effect for stimulus Category [ F (2,38) = 3.07, p = 0.058], and a weak trend towards interaction between these factors [ F (4,76) = 2.18, p = 0.079] in the left postcentral gyrus, suggesting that the activation differences between the emotions differed in all three modalities.
