三只恒河猴和两组10名人类受试者判断直立或倒置的图片相同或不同。这些照片是黑白的人脸、猴子脸或场景。这些猴子接受了50张图片的训练，并接受了来自每个类别的36张图片的测试。10个人类受试者的组用用于测试猴子的相同图片进行测试。猴子和人类都表现出大的性能递减，相对于直立的人脸，但无论是猴子的脸或场景的反转效果。第二个实验中，猴子和人类都得到了相同的结果，但使用的是不同的人脸图片，这些图片在性别（女性和男性）、面部毛发、眼镜、发型、视角和背景方面都比第一个实验中的图片有更大的差异。结果表明，尽管经验和进化差异，猴子和人类的面部处理机制相似。
Three rhesus monkeys and two groups of 10 human subjects judged upright or inverted pictures as same or different. The pictures were black and white pairs of human faces, monkey faces, or scenes. The monkeys were trained with sets of 50 pictures and were tested with other sets of 36 pictures from each category. The groups of 10 human subjects were tested with the same pictures used to test monkeys. Both monkeys and humans showed large performance decrements to inverted human faces relative to upright human faces but neither species showed inversion effects for monkey faces or scenes. A second test with both monkeys and humans showed the same pattern of results with a different set of human-face pictures that varied more in sex (female as well as male), facial hair, eyeglasses, haircut, view angle, and background than those of the first test. The results indicate similar face-processing mechanisms in monkeys and humans despite experiential and evolutionary differences.
