The other face of the other-race effect: An fMRI investigation of the other-race face categorization advantage

► VOT is more active for categorizing own- than other-race faces in ROI analyses. ► The other-race accuracy advantage correlates with PSC differences in the left FFA. ► Group analyses reveal greater activations in IFG and MFC for own-race faces. ► PPI analyses reveal that IFG modulates VOT more for own- than other-race faces. ► Overall, more neural resources are used to categorize own- than other-race faces.
