PSYCH 107: Visual Processing of Faces

How do we perceive a face, recognize its identity or judge its subtle communicative cues (e.g. emotion or intention)?

In addressing these questions, we will learn about behavioral, electrophysiological and neuroimaging approaches to understanding face processing and critically examine the theories and original research that have defined the field.
