The development of memory for own- and other-race faces.
This study demonstrates that experience and development interact to influence the "cross-race effect." In a multination study (n=245), Caucasian children and adults of European ancestry living in the United States, Norway, or South Africa, as well as biracial (Caucasian-African American) children and adults living in the United States, were tested for recognition of Asian, African, and Caucasia...
متن کاملOwn-Race Faces Capture Attention Faster than Other-Race Faces: Evidence from Response Time and the N2pc
Studies have shown that people are better at recognizing human faces from their own-race than from other-races, an effect often termed the Own-Race Advantage. The current study investigates whether there is an Own-Race Advantage in attention and its neural correlates. Participants were asked to search for a human face among animal faces. Experiment 1 showed a classic Own-Race Advantage in respo...
متن کاملWhy Some Faces will Not be Remembered: Current ERP Evidence on Memory Encoding for Other-Race and Other-Age Faces
The paper by Lucas et al. (2011) reports a very thorough assessment of the encoding of ownand other-race faces. This appears to be the first study assessing if and how the deficit in recognizing other-race faces is related to difficulties in facial encoding, as reflected in the Dm (Difference dependent on subsequent memory performance) ERP component. The study is in the tradition of Paller’s se...
متن کاملAn encoding advantage for own-race versus other-race faces.
Studies have shown that individuals are better able to recognise the faces of people from their own race than the faces of people from other races. Although the so-called own-race effect has been generally regarded as an advantage in recognition memory, differences in the processing of the own-race versus other-race faces might also be found at the earlier stages of perceptual encoding. In this...
متن کاملAttractiveness of own-race, other-race, and mixed-race faces.
Averaged face composites, which represent the central tendency of a familiar population of faces, are attractive. If this prototypicality contributes to their appeal, then averaged composites should be more attractive when their component faces come from a familiar, own-race population than when they come from a less familiar, other-race population. We compared the attractiveness of own-race co...
