Few findings in cognitive science have proved as influential as the composite face effect.
When the top half of one face is aligned with the bottom half of another, and presented …

Background: Temporal interference (TI) stimulation is a new technique of non-invasive brain
stimulation. Envelope-modulated waveforms with two high-frequency carriers can activate …

Super-recognisers inhabit the extreme high end of an adult face processing ability spectrum
in the population. While almost all research in this area has evaluated those with poor or mid …

Tobacco consumption is one of the leading causes of preventable death worldwide.
However, it is difficult to give up smoking by relying on the help of traditional treatments only …

The human extrastriate cortex contains a region critically involved in face detection and
memory, the right fusiform gyrus. The present study evaluated whether transcranial direct …

In the 3 experiments reported here we show that a specific neurostimulation method, whose
influence can be understood in terms of a well-known theory of stimulus representation, is …

We investigate here individuals' reduced ability to recognise faces from other racial
backgrounds, a robust phenomenon named the other-race effect (ORE). In this literature the …

This article reports results from three experiments that investigate how a particular neuro-
stimulation procedure is able, in certain circumstances, to selectively increase the face …

The functional role of the occipital face area (OFA) and the fusiform face area (FFA) in face
recognition is inconclusive to date. While some research has shown that the OFA and FFA …

It has been long proposed that our extraordinary face recognition ability stems from holistic
face processing. Two widely-used behavioral hallmarks of holistic face processing are the …
