“…We suggest that effects of stimulus predictability may also account for seemingly contradictory neuroimaging findings reported previously. Electrophysiological studies determining the influence of familiarity have consistently reported familiarity-dependent modulation of later (>400ms) components, while effects on earlier (<200ms) components are more variable (for reviews see Huang, et al, 2017;Ramon & Gobbini, 2018). For example, some studies suggest that the N170 / M170the earliest face-sensitive component electrical signal recorded from the scalp (Bentin & Deouell, 2000;Eimer, 2000) is sensitive to familiarity and task (Rossion et al, 1999) -.…”

“…Together these findings support the idea that 380ms may represent the lower bound for speeded manual familiarity decisions that occur ca. 180ms after the earliest neural marker of familiarity (e.g., Caharel, Ramon & Rossion, 2014;Barragan-Jason, Cauchoix & Barbeau, 2015;Huang, Wu, Hu, Wang, Ding & Qu et al, 2017).…”

“…Previous literature has linked a negative deflection around this time (N250) with accuracy in recognizing faces (Huang et al, 2017). Differences in neural activity in response to ingroup vs. outgroup images have also been shown to peak around 250 ms (Ito et al, 2004).…”

“…However, the N170 face effect has been well documented (Bentin et al, 1996;Rossion, 2014) and we therefore expected to see large negative deflections around 170 ms for our stimuli. We were also particularly interested in the time around 100 ms, important for visual perception and potentially sensitive to faces (Colombatto and McCarthy, 2017;Dering et al, 2011;Liu et al, 2002) and 250 ms, another time period linked to differences in face perception (Huang et al, 2017). Figure 4 shows example ERP data averaged across the entire group.…”

The human face is a key source of social information. In particular, it communicates a target's personal identity and some of their group memberships. Different models of social perception posit distinct stages at which this group-level and person-level information is extracted from the face, with divergent downstream consequences for cognition and behavior. This paper presents four experiments that explore the timecourse of extracting group and person information from faces. In Experiments 1 and 2, we explore the effect of chunked versus unchunked processing on the speed of extracting group versus person information, as well as the impact of familiarity in Experiment 2. In Experiment 3, we examine the effect of the availability of a diagnostic cue on these same judgments. In Experiment 4, we explore the effect of both group-level and person-level prototypicality of face exemplars. Across all four experiments, we find no evidence for the perceptual primacy of either group or person information. Instead, we find that chunked processing, featural processing based on a single diagnostic cue, familiarity, and the prototypicality of face exemplars all result in a processing speed advantage for both group-level and person-level judgments equivalently. These results have important implications for influential models of impression formation and can inform, and be integrated with, an understanding of the process of social categorization more broadly.
