查尔斯纳尔逊在他对人脸识别文献的深思熟虑和学术评论中，给出了来自各种来源的证据，得出了一些结论。其中两个是完全令人信服的：人脸识别是“特殊的”，它是由离散神经系统。然而，他的一个主要结论是，面部识别取决于其收购的经验，在这篇简短的评论中，我们专注于研究新生儿，并提出，面部识别能力是在出生时发展良好。我们提供了来自三组研究的证据，在每组研究中，新生儿都是（1）出生后不久的面部识别;（2）对有吸引力的面孔的偏好;（3）模仿面部表情。
In his thoughtful and scholarly review of the literature on face recognition, Charles Nelson gives evidence from a variety of sources to draw a number of conclusions. Two of these are entirely convincing: face recognition is ‘special’, and it is subserved by discrete neural systems. However, one of his major conclusions is that face recognition depends on experience for its acquisition, and in this short commentary, we focus on research with newborn infants and suggest that face recognition abilities are well developed at birth. We present evidence from three sets of studies, in each of which newborn infants have been the subjects of (1) face recognition soon after birth;(2) preferences for attractive faces; and (3) imitation of facial gestures.
