“…The majority of the composite face studies (Young et al, 1987) belong in that class. In contrast, theoretical definitions of holistic processing, dating at least to O'Toole, Wenger, and Townsend, (2001) include formal, computational, and mathematical models (Wenger & Townsend, 2001a;2001b;Copeland & Wenger, 2006;Cornes et al, 2011;Mestry et al, 2012;Mestry et al, 2014;Donnelly et al, 2012;Fifić & Townsend, 2010;O'Toole et al, 2001;Wenger & Ingvalson, 2002;Fitousi & Wenger, 2013;Fitousi, 2013). These accounts avoid circularity and are open to falsification because they rely on explicit and well-defined processing models of independence.…”

“…Operational studies often support the notion of facial holism whereas quantitative computational models are much less supportive. Studies from the latter tradition have shown that facial features can stand the strong tests of: statistical independence (Ellison & Massaro, 1997;Gold et al, 2012;Loftus et al, 2004;Macho & Leder, 1998), geometrical independence (Sergent, 1984;Tversky & Krantz, 1969), independence in processing rate (Bradshaw & Wallace, 1971;Wenger & Townsend, 2006;Donnelly et al, 2012), and perceptual independence (Wenger & Ingvalson, 2002, but see, Mestry et al, 2012).…”

“…However, a study of the relationships among visual processing features, age and familiarity in the one project, could, we hoped, add new information and understanding of how the decline occurs and could lead to new procedures that help reduce the decline and its effects. the face, the face looks grotesque due to the inversion of the features (cf., Donnelly et al, 2012;Valentine, 1988). However, if the face is inverted and the features are also inverted or "Thatcherised" (with eyes and mouth correctly oriented in relation to the viewer), the face is commonly seen as normal (that is, is seen -wrongly-as being the face of the individual as though there were no featural distortion).…”

“…These earlier researchers, beginning with Thompson (1980), used normal and "Thatcherised" images (faces with distorted elements) mostly images of celebrity faces (e.g., Julia Roberts's face), but none had combined both in the one study to our knowledge (see also Utz & Carbon, 2016). The faces are usually presented inverted or upright in conjunction with feature distortions (e.g., Bartlett & Searcy, 1993;Carbon & Leder, 2005;Donnelly, Cornes, & Menneer, 2012;Donnelly et al, 2011;Milivojevic, Clapp, Johnson, & Croballis, 2003;Rakover, 1999;Tanaka, Kaiser, Hagen, & Pearce, 2014;Valentine, 1988;Xu & Tanaka, 2013).…”
