Expert en visages ? Pourquoi sommes-nous tous… des experts en reconnaissance des visages
Résumé
Configural information appeared to play a particular role during facial information processing. After a description of the different observations reported in the scientific literature, we try to define more precisely what covers the term "configural information". We also discuss the extent to which this type of processing allows to give an account of our expertise in faces. Finally, we discuss the face-specificity of these processings.
