FMRI-adaptation to highly-rendered color photographs of animals and manipulable artifacts during a classification task

► Examined adaptation to animals and to manipulable artifacts during classification. ► Found stronger adaptation for animals in color and emotion areas. ► Found stronger adaptation for tools in visuo-motor areas in parietal cortex. ► Classification of animals may depend on perceptual and emotional properties. ► Classification of manipulable artifacts may depend on perceived function.
