是什么让视觉系统呈现的脸在倒过来的时候如此难以辨认？作者测试了一个假设，即“脸反转”效应是由使用整体形状表征引起的。这表明非正面模式对反演的敏感性应该是其部分分解程度的函数。在实验1中，这一点用网点图案进行了测试和证实，在网点图案中，根据网点颜色通过分组和分离来控制部分分解的程度。该假设还预测，如果参与者根据面孔的组成部分来识别面孔，则可以通过面部刺激消除面孔反转效应。在实验2中，这是用完整的、完整的脸来测试和证实的，在这个实验中，部分分解的程度是通过允许参与者研究它们来控制的，最初，在完整的、完整的版本或部分分开呈现的版本中。
What is it about the way faces are represented by the visual system that makes them so much harder to recognize when inverted? The authors tested the hypothesis that the ''face inversion'' effect results from the use of holistic shape representations. This suggests that the susceptibility of nonface patterns to inversion should be a function of their degree of part decomposition. In Experiment 1 this was tested and confirmed with dot patterns in which the degree of part decomposition was manipulated by grouping and segregation on the basis of dot color. The hypothesis also predicted that the face inversion effect can be eliminated with face stimuli if participants are induced to recognize the faces in terms of their component parts. In Experiment 2 this was tested and confirmed with whole, intact faces, in which the degree of part decomposition was manipulated by allowing participants to study them, initially, in either whole, intact versions or versions with parts presented separately.
