Many Researchers Argue That Face Perception Is "Special"; We Process

question 67

Multiple Choice

Many researchers argue that face perception is "special"; we process faces in a different way than we process other visual stimuli. According to this perspective,

• A) we process the color of human faces before we process their shape.
• B) unlike other objects, information about faces does not pass through the primary visual cortex.
• C) we recognize faces in terms of their entire shape, rather than in terms of their isolated features.
• D) because faces are so complex, we take a long time to recognize that an object is a face; in contrast, we recognize simpler objects much more quickly.
