Aftereffects in face processing
The original aim of this special issue was to use aftereffects to highlight the different cognitive, perceptual, and neural representations of unfamiliar and familiar faces. Face aftereffects occur due to prolonged exposure to an adaptor face that causes a test face to take on the “opposite” characteristics (e.g., a normal face will appear compressed following adaptation to an expanded face, We...
متن کاملFrontal contributions to face processing differences in autism: evidence from fMRI of inverted face processing.
Functional neuroimaging studies of face processing deficits in autism have typically focused on visual processing regions, such as the fusiform face area (FFA), which have shown reduced activity in autism spectrum disorders (ASD), though inconsistently. We recently reported reduced activity in the inferior frontal region in ASD, implicating impaired mirror-neuron systems during face processing....
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...
متن کاملFace aftereffects predict individual differences in face recognition ability.
Face aftereffects are widely studied on the assumption that they provide a useful tool for investigating face-space coding of identity. However, a long-standing issue concerns the extent to which face aftereffects originate in face-level processes as opposed to earlier stages of visual processing. For example, some recent studies failed to find atypical face aftereffects in individuals with cli...
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...
