The role of configural processing in face classification by race: an ERP study [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 The current study investigated the time course of the other-race classification advantage (ORCA) in the subordinate classification of normally configured faces and distorted faces by race.

Differences in configural processing for human versus android dynamic facial expressions [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Humanlike androids can function as social agents in social situations and in experimental research. While some androids can imitate facial emotion expressions, it is unclear whether their expressions tap the same processing mechanisms utilized in human ...

Configural processing as an optimized strategy for robust object recognition in neural networks [PDF]
Communications BiologyConfigural processing, the perception of spatial relationships among an object’s components, is crucial for object recognition, yet its teleology and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Configural but Not Featural Face Information Is Associated With Automatic Processing
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 Configural face processing precedes featural face processing under the face-attended condition, but their temporal sequence in the absence of attention is unclear.

Perceived Race Affects Configural Processing but Not Holistic Processing in the Composite-Face Task [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 One explanation for the own-race bias in face recognition is the loss of holistic processing for other-race faces. The composite-face task (involving matching the top halves of faces when the bottom halves are either changed or the same) tests holistic ...

Impaired configural processing for other-race faces revealed by the Thatcher illusion [PDF]
i-PerceptionThe Thatcher illusion, where participants perceive upright faces with inverted eyes and mouth as grotesque but are markedly impaired in detecting grotesqueness when the entire faces are inverted, is commonly interpreted as reflecting disrupted configural

Part-based and configural processing of owner's face in dogs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Dogs exhibit characteristic looking patterns when looking at human faces but little is known about what the underlying cognitive mechanisms are and how much these are influenced by individual experience.

Inversion Reveals Perceptual Asymmetries in the Configural Processing of Human Body [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017 Ambiguous human bodies performing unimanual/unipedal actions are perceived more frequently as right-handed/footed rather than left-handed/footed, which suggests a perceptual and attentional bias toward the right side of others’ body.

Behavioral and neural markers of visual configural processing in social scene perception
NeuroImage, 2022 Research on face perception has revealed highly specialized visual mechanisms such as configural processing, and provided markers of interindividual differences –including disease risks and alterations– in visuo-perceptual abilities that traffic in ...

The Man Who Mistook His Neuropsychologist For a Popstar: When Configural Processing Fails in Acquired Prosopagnosia [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 We report the case of an individual with acquired prosopagnosia who experiences extreme difficulties in recognising familiar faces in everyday life despite excellent object recognition skills.
