fMRI Repetition Suppression During Generalized Social Categorization
Abstract Correctly identifying friends and foes is integral to successful group living. Here, we use repetition suppression to examine the neural circuitry underlying generalized group categorization—the process of categorizing in-group and out-group members across multiple social categories.

Abstract Correctly identifying friends and foes is integral to successful group living.
