两项实验研究了空间和表面线索在 1 岁到 80 岁之间的陌生面孔的年龄处理中的重要性。已知影响人脸识别的三种操作被单独使用或以各种组合使用：反转、否定和模糊。脸部全部或部分呈现。年龄估计性能在很大程度上不受大多数这些操作的影响。由于有大量可用的线索，年龄处理似乎是一个非常稳健的过程。实验 1 表明，与面部识别相比，年龄感知似乎基本上不受倒置或否定的影响。实验 2 表明，可以根据表面信息（内部面部特征的 2D 分布，以及纹理信息）或形状信息（头部形状加上特征配置，只要存在来自阴影的形状信息）来进行年龄估计。
Two experiments investigated the importance of spatial and surface cues in the age-processing of unfamiliar faces aged between one and 80 years. Three manipulations known to affect face recognition were used, individually and in various combinations: inversion, negation, and blurring. Faces were presented either in whole or in part. Age-estimation performance was largely unaffected by most of these manipulations; age-processing appears to be a highly robust process, due to the numerous cues available. Experiment 1 showed that, in contrast to face recognition, age-perception appears to be substantially unimpaired by inversion or negation. Experiment 2 suggests that age-estimates can be made on the basis of either surface information (the 2D disposition of the internal facial features, together with texture information) or shape information (head-shape plus feature configuration, as long as shape-from-shading information is present).
