Solving the upside-down puzzle: Why do upright and inverted face aftereffects look alike?
Face aftereffects for upright faces have been widely assumed to derive from face space and to provide useful information about its properties. Yet remarkably similar aftereffects have consistently been reported for inverted faces, a problematic finding because other paradigms argue that inverted faces are processed by different mechanisms from upright faces. Here, we identify a qualitative diff...
متن کاملGlobal face distortion aftereffects tap face-specific and shape-generic processes.
Face aftereffects are commonly used to investigate the mechanisms underlying face processing, based on the assumption that they tap processes involved specifically with face-level coding (e.g., face space). However, face aftereffects could potentially arise from many levels of the visual system, and recent research has shown that one figural aftereffect (eye height) has both face-level and shap...
متن کاملGender aftereffects in face silhouettes reveal face-specific mechanisms
Recently a parameterized face space has been created using profile face silhouettes (Davidenko, 2007). Face silhouettes provide enough information for accurate judgements of age, gender, attractiveness, and race, and their parameterization allows us to characterize the physical factors that affect these judgements. Here we use these stimuli to further probe the representation of face gender, by...

متن کاملOrientation-Contingent Face Aftereffects and Implications for Face-Coding Mechanisms
Humans have an impressive ability to discriminate between faces despite their similarity as visual patterns. This expertise relies on configural coding of spatial relations between face features and/or holistic coding of overall facial structure. These expert face-coding mechanisms appear to be engaged most effectively by upright faces, with inverted faces engaging primarily feature-coding mech...
