Which of the following statements is TRUE about the recognition of inverted faces?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Recognition of inverted faces is more difficult than for upright faces, as the brain relies on specific features such as configuration and spacing of facial features. Inverting the image disrupts this processing, making it harder to recognize the face. Option B is incorrect, as face processing is indeed affected by inverting the image. Option C is also incorrect, as inverting a nonliving object does not produce a bigger deficit in recognition than inverting a face - rather, it depends on familiarity with the object or face. Option D is also incorrect, as specialist neurons in the fusiform gyrus, not the parietal cortex, rapidly restore a face to its upright position for further processing.
