Beyond U-Shaped Development in Infants' Processing of Faces: An Information-Processing Account (2004, methodology): “…such as color, shape, texture, and unity, to processing the relations among these features (e.g., Needham & Baillargeon, 1997; Wilcox & Baillargeon, 1998; see Cohen & Cashon, 2001b, for a discussion), although this conclusion is based mostly on indirect evidence and is still somewhat controversial.”
Configural Face Processing Develops more Slowly than Featural Face Processing (2002, background): “By 7 months of age, they process the relationship among the parts of a face; after being habituated to two faces, 7-month-old infants treat a composite face consisting of the external portion of one familiar face and the internal parts of the other as if it were a novel face (Cashon and Cohen 2001).”
Same-race faces are perceived more holistically than other-race faces (2004, methodology): “On the one hand, holistic processing is observed in young children (e.g., Carey & Diamond, 1994; Cohen & Cashon, 2001; Pellicano & Rhodes, 2003; Tanaka, Kay, Grinnell, Stansfield, & Szechter, 1998) and does not appear to increase between 6 and 10 years old (Carey & Diamond, 1994; Joseph & Tanaka,…”
Same-race faces are perceived more holistically than other-race faces (2006, unknown): “On the one hand, holistic processing is observed in young children (e.g., Carey & Diamond, 1994; Cohen & Cashon, 2001; Pellicano & Rhodes, 2003; Tanaka, Kay, Grinnell, Stansfield, & Szechter, 1998) and does not appear to increase between 6 and 10 years old (Carey & Diamond, 1994; Joseph & Tanaka, ”
