Behavioural separation of face memory and face perception

Nature Communications
A long-standing debate in neuropsychology concerns whether perception and memory function as independent systems or interact to support cognition. To investigate this, we develop the Face Memory and Perception task, a paradigm designed to systematically ...

Mask-wearing selectivity alters observers’ face perception [PDF]

Cognitive Research, 2022
Face masks became prevalent across the globe as an efficient tool to stop the spread of COVID-19. A host of studies already demonstrated that masks lead to changes in facial identification and emotional expression processing.

Dissociation between face perception and face memory in adults, but not children, with developmental prosopagnosia

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2014
Cognitive models propose that face recognition is accomplished through a series of discrete stages, including perceptual representation of facial structure, and encoding and retrieval of facial information. This implies that impaired face recognition can

Face masks disrupt holistic processing and face perception in school-age children

Cognitive Research, 2022
Face perception is considered a remarkable visual ability in humans that is subject to a prolonged developmental trajectory. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, mask-wearing has become mandatory for adults and children alike. Recent research shows that

Both identity and non-identity face perception tasks predict developmental prosopagnosia and face recognition ability [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Developmental prosopagnosia (DP) is characterised by deficits in face identification. However, there is debate about whether these deficits are primarily perceptual, and whether they extend to other face processing tasks (e.g., identifying emotion, age ...

Face memory and face perception in autism [PDF]

Autism, 2021
It has been argued that autistic individuals have difficulties with face memory but typical face perception. However, only one previous study has examined both face memory and face perception in the same individuals, and this study was conducted with a small group of autistic children. Here, face recognition was examined with a group of autistic adults

Understanding the Impact of Face Masks on the Processing of Facial Identity, Emotion, Age, and Gender

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced new challenges for governments and individuals. Unprecedented efforts at reducing virus transmission launched a novel arena for human face recognition in which faces are partially occluded with masks. Previous studies

Individual differences in social intelligence and perception of emotion expression of masked and unmasked faces

Cognitive Research, 2022
Facial expressions provide key information for successful social interactions. Recent research finds that accurate perception of emotion expressions decreases when faces are presented with face masks.

Reading Emotions in Faces With and Without Masks Is Relatively Independent of Extended Exposure and Individual Difference Variables

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
The ability to read emotions in faces helps humans efficiently assess social situations. We tested how this ability is affected by aspects of familiarization with face masks and personality, with a focus on emotional intelligence (measured with an ...
