Featural and Configurational Processes in the Recognition of Faces of Different Familiarity [PDF]
Perception, 2000 Previous research suggests that face recognition may involve both configurational and piecemeal (featural) processing. To explore the relationship between these processing modes, we examined the patterns of recognition impairment produced by blurring, inversion, and scrambling, both singly and in various combinations.

Configural processing in the perception of eye-gaze direction [PDF]
, 2003 Traditional accounts of gaze perception emphasise the geometric or configural cues present in the eye; the position of the iris in relation to the corner of the eye, for example.

Early Deafness Increases the Face Inversion Effect and Does Not Modulate the Composite Face Effect
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 Early deprivation in audition can have striking effects on the development of visual processing. Here we investigated whether early deafness induces changes in holistic/configural face processing.

The effect of age on the early stage of face perception in depressed patients: An ERP study
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 The aim of the present study was to investigate the age effect on face perceptual processing in MDD patients by analyzing the N170 component in response to faces and objects presented in upright and inverted conditions.

Feature and Configuration in Face Processing: Japanese Are More Configural Than Americans [PDF]
Cognitive Science, 2011 AbstractPrevious work suggests that Asians allocate more attention to configuration information than Caucasian Americans do. Yet this cultural variation has been found only with stimuli such as natural scenes and objects that require both feature‐ and configuration‐based processing.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 It is widely agreed that the human face is processed differently from other objects. However there is a lack of consensus on what is meant by a wide array of terms used to describe this special face processing (e.g.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation reveals two cortical pathways for visual body processing [PDF]
, 2007 Visual recognition of human bodies is more difficult for upside down than upright presentations. This body inversion effect implies that body perception relies on configural rather than local processing.

Changing face contours reduces the inversion effect and overall recognition performance
Current Research in Behavioral Sciences, 2023 This paper investigates how manipulating the face contour would systematically influence the face inversion effect (i.e., better recognition performance for upright vs inverted upside-down faces) and overall face recognition.

Face Configuration Processing in the Human Brain: The Role of Symmetry [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2006 Symmetry is an important cue in face perception. We manipulated symmetry and other configurational variables to study their role in face processing in the human brain. We employed 2 types of symmetry: image symmetry (where one part of the image is defined as the mirrored transform of the other part about an axis) and object symmetry (where the spatial ...
