Document Summary
Pascalis, et al. (2005) macaque faces. Simpson, varga, frick, and fragaszy (2011) sheep faces. A large body of research evidencing what"s known as the other-race effect (ore) Fine-tuning of face discrimination seen as a function of experience. By 8-9 months of age, discrimination sensitivity decreases to what is termed other races". Kelly, quinn, slater, lee, ge, and pascalis (2007) Premised on the idea that we develop a prototype based on all of the faces we have encoded. These prototypes are considered to be developed in relation to the range of face types to which a specific individual is exposed therefore should be optimized to that person"s environment (experience-specific) To clarify the developmental origins of the ore during the first months of life (p. 1085) 24 colour images of male and female faces (all had dark hair/eyes) Tried to carefully match each face pair. Participants equally distributed across conditions, with half of each condition getting male/female faces.
