Abstract

One of the basic controversial issues on face recognition differing from object recognition is whether the holistic and configural processing are natural ability or the result of postnatal learning. We examined that the holistic, configural, and automatic processing regarded as the face-specific characteristics could be observed in the object recognition through the expert learning process(experiment 1). We also measured the intensity of selective activation in FFA to the synthetic face and object using fMRI(experiment 2). In experiment 1, we found that the holistic, configural, and automatic processing were observed by the expert group both in face and object recognition. In experiment 2, we found the activation of FFA to synthetic face and object increased after expert learning. FFA might be therefore not face-specific but have domain-general characteristics. These results lend direct evidence that the characteristics of face information processing is not given by natural ability but by the result of expert learning.
