Combined effects of inversion and feature removal on N170 responses elicited by faces and car fronts
(Elsevier, 2013-02-28)The face-sensitive N170 is typically enhanced for inverted compared to upright faces. Itier, Alain, Sedore, and McIntosh (2007) recently suggested that this N170 inversion effect is mainly driven by the eye region which ... -
Early sensitivity for eyes within faces: A new neuronal account of holistic and featural processing
(Elsevier, 2014-08-01)Eyes are central to face processing however their role in early face encoding as reflected by the N170 ERP component is unclear. Using eye tracking to enforce fixation on specific facial features, we found that the N170 ... -
Increased Early Sensitivity to Eyes in Mouthless Faces: In Support of the LIFTED Model of Early Face Processing
(Springer, 2018-07-09)The N170 ERP component is a central neural marker of early face perception usually thought to reflect holistic processing. However, it is also highly sensitive to eyes presented in isolation and to fixation on the eyes ...
