“…Neural responses around this time have been related to explicit categorization of faces according to gender, familiarity, and group membership (Barrett and Rugg, 1989;Jemel et al, 2009;Olivares et al, 2003;Valdes-Conroy et al, 2014). Taken together, these results suggest information reflecting social connections that is not separable from person identity is present early, potentially contributing to recognition of faces, and that identity-independent information associated with social connections may be a separate process that occurs only after identity representations are processed.…”

“…Face gender could interfere with emotion categorization, but facial emotion did not interfere with gender categorization (Plant et al, 2000; Atkinson et al, 2005). In contrast, Valdes-Conroy et al (2014) found a facial emotion × face gender interaction in error rates in the gender categorization task and in the components of event-related potentials (N170) in the emotion categorization task. Whether the facial emotion × face gender interaction is symmetric or asymmetric is determined by stimulus set size.…”

Interference among the Processing of Facial Emotion, Face Race, and Face Gender

People can process multiple dimensions of facial properties simultaneously. Facial processing models are based on the processing of facial properties. The current study examined the processing of facial emotion, face race, and face gender using categorization tasks. The same set of Chinese, White and Black faces, each posing a neutral, happy or angry expression, was used in three experiments. Facial emotion interacted with face race in all the tasks. The interaction of face race and face gender was found in the race and gender categorization tasks, whereas the interaction of facial emotion and face gender was significant in the emotion and gender categorization tasks. These results provided evidence for a symmetric interaction between variant facial properties (emotion) and invariant facial properties (race and gender).

“…These average male and female faces were presented in gray scale. The facial images comprised a neutral facial expression because emotional expressions appear to interact with face gender perception (Hess et al, 2009; Valdés-Conroy et al, 2014). The occluder was an orthonormal planar surface containing random and irregular holes (Figure 1B), and about 43% of the facial area was visible through its holes.…”

Whether face gender perception is processed by encoding holistic (whole) or featural (parts) information is a controversial issue. Although neuroimaging studies have identified brain regions related to face gender perception, the temporal dynamics of this process remain under debate. Here, we identified the mechanism and temporal dynamics of face gender perception. We used stereoscopic depth manipulation to create two conditions: the front and behind condition. In the front condition, facial patches were presented stereoscopically in front of the occluder and participants perceived them as disjoint parts (featural cues). In the behind condition, facial patches were presented stereoscopically behind the occluder and were amodally completed and unified in a coherent face (holistic cues). We performed three behavioral experiments and one electroencephalography experiment, and compared the results of the front and behind conditions. We found faster reaction times (RTs) in the behind condition compared with the front, and observed priming effects and aftereffects only in the behind condition. Moreover, the EEG experiment revealed that face gender perception is processed in the relatively late phase of visual recognition (200–285 ms). Our results indicate that holistic information is critical for face gender perception, and that this process occurs with a relatively late latency.
