Abstract:
Two observations about human behavior suggest that the human face may be a special visual object. First, the average person can discriminate and remember hundreds of faces in spite of the fact that faces are highly similar objects. Second, the average person uses the face as a source of a great amount of information about other individuals. Identification is but one aspect of this information faces also serve as the basis for inferences about character and personality, mood, and the specific feelings being expressed by another person.
