It has been claimed that faces are recognized as a “whole” rather than by the recognition of
individual parts. In a paper published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology in …

A longstanding controversy concerns the functional organization of high-level vision, and the
extent to which the recognition of different classes of visual stimuli engages a single system …

Face recognition is thought to rely on specific mechanisms underlying a perceptual bias
toward processing faces as undecomposable wholes. This face-specific “holistic processing” …

Developmental prosopagnosia (DP) refers to face recognition deficits in the absence of
brain damage. DP affects∼ 2% of the population, and it often runs in families. DP studies …

Developmental prosopagnosia is characterized by severe, lifelong difficulties when
recognizing facial identity. Unfortunately, the most common diagnostic assessment …

Interest in using individual differences in face recognition ability to better understand the
perceptual and cognitive mechanisms supporting face processing has grown substantially in …

Developmental prosopagnosia has received increased attention in recent years, but as yet
has no confirmed genetic or structural markers. It is not certain whether this condition reflects …

Face-recognition abilities differ largely in the neurologically typical population. We examined
how the use of information varies with face-recognition ability from developmental …

A reliable self-report measure to assess the broad spectrum of face recognition ability (FRA)
from developmental prosopagnosia (DP) to super-recognition would make a valuable …

Previous work has reported the existence of “super-recognisers”(SRs), or individuals with
extraordinary face recognition skills. However, the precise underpinnings of this ability have …
