Abstract
⺠In this study we probe the neural correlates of face perception using ERPs. ⺠Unique stimulus set contained images that varied on a continuum of “faceness”. ⺠The N170 component exhibited steep selectivity: larger for faces than all non-faces. ⺠Single-trial classification of whole waveform revealed sensitivity to graded face similarity. ⺠Visual system shows both graded and selective response to faces.
