面孔知觉中的适应现象

人们在比较长时间地知觉加工面孔中的性别、表情、种族、年龄等信息时, 会产生适应现象, 即对这些信息的变化更加敏感, 甚至因过度敏感而产生面孔知觉错觉。研究者创设了适应范式(adaptation paradigm)用于面孔知觉研究, 大多集中于探讨面孔各个维度知觉上怎样出现适应效应, 发现面孔适应效应受制于多种因素, 最近几年研究焦点转向了对面孔属性间关系的探索。未来研究尚需要加强面孔知觉适应的过程研究以及提高面孔适应研究的生态效度等。

The Adaption Phenomenon in Face Perception

Adaption in face perception presents if people continuously process the information of gender, expression, ethnic and age et al.. That is, people become more sensitive with any changes of the face features, they even have illusion in face perception because of hypersensitivity. Researchers use adaption paradigm to study such a phenomenon. Most of the studies focused on how the adaption happen in various dimensions of face information, which revealed it was constrained by many factors. There is an increase interest in current research regarding the interaction between different features of face. Future study should pay more attention to explore the process of face perception adaption and enhancement of study ecological validity et al.
