即时获取我们遇到的人的信息是有效社交互动的基本要求。在这篇手稿中,我们简要回顾了我们的工作和其他人的工作熟悉的面孔识别,并提出了一个修改后的版本,我们的模型的神经系统的面孔感知,特别强调与熟悉的面孔识别的过程。我们认为,视觉外观只是熟悉的个人成功识别的一个组成部分。其他的基本方面包括“人的知识”的检索--我们认识的人的个人特征、意图和观点的表征--以及我们看到一个熟悉的人时所经历的情感反应。具体来说,我们假设,“心理理论”领域,已牵连到社会和认知功能以外的面孔知觉,发挥了重要作用,在自发激活的人的知识与认识熟悉的个人。杏仁核和杏仁核是参与情绪表征的结构,也是受熟悉度调节的分布式区域网络的一部分,反映了情绪在面孔识别中的作用。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Immediate access to information about people that we encounter is an essential requirement for effective social interactions. In this manuscript we briefly review our work and work of others on familiar face recognition and propose a modified version of our model of neural systems for face perception with a special emphasis on processes associated with recognition of familiar faces. We argue that visual appearance is only one component of successful recognition of familiar individuals. Other fundamental aspects include the retrieval of "person knowledge"-the representation of the personal traits, intentions, and outlook of someone we know-and the emotional response we experience when seeing a familiar individual. Specifically, we hypothesize that the "theory of mind" areas, that have been implicated in social and cognitive functions other than face perception, play an essential role in the spontaneous activation of person knowledge associated with the recognition of familiar individuals. The amygdala and the insula, structures that are involved in the representation of emotion, also are part of the distributed network of areas that are modulated by familiarity, reflecting the role of emotion in face recognition.
