Gauthier (1999) |
Two prosopagnosics tested, found that they couldn't match target objects or faces to a sample (impaired face and object matching) |
|
|
Gauthier (1997) |
Experts on greebles recognised parts of greebles more quickly when they were part of the greeble they had studied them from (global processing) This effect wasn't found for novices or when the greebles were inverted |
|
|
Gauthier (2000) |
FMRI shows greeble experts recruit FFA and OFA when viewing greebles Other homogenous categories like birds and cars produce more FFA activation than other familar objects Expertise can be used to predict the relative activation of the FFA for birds vs Cars She suggests expert/high level categorisation is what recruits the FFA |

Freiwald and Tsao (2010) |
6 face selective patches identified by single cell recordings Middle patches are viewpoint selective AL is symmetrically viewpoint specific AM has 73% Identity selective cells with consistent response to certain faces from all angles, apart from the back of the head |

Sugita (2008) |
Monkeys deprived of faces for 6-24 months show preference for monkey + human faces Neuronal pruning can be used to make the infant monkeys specialise in discriminating human or monkey faces - you expose them to only the faces of the species you want them to discriminate and they lose ability in the other Evidence for genetics and environmental critical period |

Nelson (2001) |
Review of literature on whether faces are a special class of processing. Support for faces being seen as a separate class of objects within 6 months. Face recognition is likely 'experience-expectant' Early specialisation leads to lack of later plasticity (adults fail to recover after damage) More research needed on what experience, when, and how long for |

Nelson (2001) - Quote |
'Tissue in the inferotemporal cortex becomes specialised, and continued exposure maintains the tissue until it becomes dedicated to face recognition' |
|
|
Harris (2012) |
On spectra of face emotions, the pSTS responds with equal changes in intensity to spectrum changes of the same distance.The amygdala has larger changes in response when the spectrum change crossed a perceived category boundary |
|
|
Harris (2014) |
The changes in response intensity in the amygdala following perceived emotional category changes are not dependent on identity As long as the distance on the spectrum is the same, replacing the identity of the face doesn't significantly change the response |
|
|
Richler (2011) |
Face recognition is disproportionately impaired by inversion But this study shows that they are processed in qualitatively the same way, but quantitatively it is less efficient and takes a longer time to occur |

Joo (2015) |
Trained model to predict perceived traits using facial attributes Used the model to predict real world events where first impressions affect the outcome Predicted political elections 67% of the time Predicted political party affiliation 61% of the time Analysis reveals governers are more likely elected if young and masculine faces, senators more likely if old, rich and non-energetic faces |

Driver (2005) |
Created morph continua between famous faces. Somepairs of faces were:Identical, 30%different but perceived as the same identity, 30%different across the identity threshold IOG - Sensitive to physical changes FFA - Sensitive to identity rather than physical changes Bilateral anterior regions - Sensitive to changes varied by pre-experimental familiarity |
