Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Previous studies have shown that familiar face recognition depends more on internal facial features (i.e., eyes, nose, mouth), whereas unfamiliar face recognition depends more on external facial features (i.e., hair, ears, contour). However, very few studies have examined the recognition of faces that vary in both familiarity and race, and the reliance on different facial features, while also using faces that incorporate natural within-person variability. In the current study, we used an online version of the card sorting task to assess recognition of adults (n = 258) for faces that vary in familiarity and race when presented with either the whole face, internal features only, or external features only. Adults better recognized familiar faces than unfamiliar faces in both the whole face and the internal features only conditions, but not in the external features only condition. Reasons why adults did not show an own-race advantage in recognition are explored.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
