Description
Facial information and recognition is an important cognitive function that aids face-to-face communication. Holistic processing and featural processing have been experimentally manipulated in various ways to determine which of these processing styles aid with accurate recognition. This study explores the effects that partial occlusion has on facial processing and recognition.
