Two identical top halves of a face are perceived as being different when their bottom halves
belong to different faces, showing that the parts of a face cannot be perceived independently …

Although holistic processing is thought to underlie normal face recognition ability, widely
discrepant reports have recently emerged about this link in an individual differences context …

It is well‐established that matching images of unfamiliar faces is rather error prone.
However, there is an important mismatch between face matching in laboratory and realistic …

Individuals are consistently better at recognizing own-race faces compared to other-race
faces (other-race effect, ORE). One popular hypothesis is that this recognition memory ORE …

Holistic processing, a hallmark of face perception, is often measured in the so-called
composite paradigm, in which participants are asked to match part of a stimulus while …

Several studies have shown that face identification accuracy is lower in older than younger
adults. This effect of aging might be due to age differences in holistic processing, which is …

We measured thresholds in a 1-of-10 face identification task in which stimuli were
embedded in orientation-filtered Gaussian noise. For upright faces, the threshold elevation …

Recent evidence suggests stronger holistic processing for own-race faces may underlie the
own-race advantage in face memory. In previous studies Caucasian participants have …

Previous research has demonstrated that older adults are not as accurate as younger adults
at perceiving negative emotions in facial expressions. These studies rely on emotion …

Objectives. Recent research suggests that older adults have difficulties with aspects of
configural face processing. The present study examined whether age-related declines in …
