Disrupting perceptual grouping of face parts impairs holistic face processing
Face perception is widely believed to involve integration of facial features into a holistic perceptual unit, but the mechanisms underlying this integration are relatively unknown. We examined whether perceptual grouping cues influence a classic marker of holistic face perception, the "composite-face effect." Participants made same-different judgments about a cued part of sequentially presented...

متن کاملProlonged Visual Experience in Adulthood Modulates Holistic Face Perception
BACKGROUND Using the well-known composite illusion as a marker of the holistic perception of faces, we tested how prolonged visual experience with a specific population of faces (4- to 6-year-old children) modulates the face perception system in adulthood. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We report a face composite effect that is larger for adult than children faces in a group of adults without...

The effects of both grouping and familiarity can be understood in terms of amore general hypothesis: th...
