Prior reviews of infant face processing have emphasized how infants respond to faces in
general. This review highlights how infants come to respond differentially to social …

Faces are thought to have a privileged status for processing relative to other visual images.
Humans use faces to identify people, learn language, and to communicate and understand …

In the last two decades, statistical clustering models have emerged as a dominant model of
how infants learn the sounds of their language. However, recent empirical and …

Infants show facility for discriminating between individual faces within hours of birth. Over the
first year of life, infants' face discrimination shows continued improvement with familiar face …

Perceptual narrowing occurs in human infants for other-race faces. A paired-comparison
task measuring infant looking time was used to investigate the hypothesis that adding …

Over the last 15 years, researchers have examined how infants respond to the social
categories of faces. In the case of race, infants encounter more faces of their own race than …

Face-processing abilities are biased such that some faces are differentiated, recognized,
and identified more readily than others. Across the first year of life, experience with faces …

The idea that visual coding and perception are shaped by experience and adjust to changes
in the environment or the observer is universally recognized as a cornerstone of visual …

During the first year of life, infants undergo a process known as perceptual narrowing, which
reduces their sensitivity to classes of stimuli which the infants do not encounter in their …

The ability to discriminate between faces from unfamiliar face groups has previously been
found to decrease across the first year of life. Here, individual-level discrimination of faces …
