有越来越多的证据表明，人脸识别是“特殊的”，但不确定的方式，它是特殊的。作者回顾并比较了以前的提议和他们自己最近的假设，即面孔是“整体”识别的（即，使用比其他类型的对象相对较少的部分分解）。这一假设可以解释来自面孔记忆实验的各种数据，并通过4个新的面孔知觉实验进行了验证。采用选择性注意范式和掩蔽范式比较面孔知觉与倒置面孔、词语和房屋知觉的差异。证据被发现相对较少的部分为基础的形状表示的脸。本文还回顾了机器视觉和猴颞叶皮层单单位记录的文献，以收集人脸表征的证据。回顾神经心理学文献，寻找关于面孔表征是否在程度或种类上与其他类型物体表征不同的证据。
There is growing evidence that face recognition is "special" but less certainty concerning the way in which it is special. The authors review and compare previous proposals and their own more recent hypothesis, that faces are recognized "holistically" (i.e., using relatively less part decomposition than other types of objects). This hypothesis, which can account for a variety of data from experiments on face memory, was tested with 4 new experiments on face perception. A selective attention paradigm and a masking paradigm were used to compare the perception of faces with the perception of inverted faces, words, and houses. Evidence was found of relatively less part-based shape representation for faces. The literatures on machine vision and single unit recording in monkey temporal cortex are also reviewed for converging evidence on face representation. The neuropsychological literature is reviewed for evidence on the question of whether face representation differs in degree or kind from the representation of other types of objects.
