PRINCIPAL
RESEARCH THEMES
My research deals mainly with the
processes of face recognition and recognition of facial emotion, as
well as gender categorization. The studies conducted revolve around two
major issues, which are approached from a multidisciplinary perspective:
-- Independence of the various processes involved in facial
information processing: the goal is to determine to what extent the
human capacity to independently extract different kinds of information
from a face (identity, emotion, gender) calls upon attentional
resources.
-- Face expertise and configural information processing: the goal
is to determine the role of configural information in our "expert"
ability to process faces.
For both of these themes, data obtained from adults are compared
with data obtained from impaired populations (localized brain lesions,
schizophrenic patients, William-Beuren Syndrome) or populations still
acquiring the ability to process face information (infants, children).
This project is supported by an ACI "Young Researchers 2003" grant
from the Ministry of Research.
