Summary
Faces carry a wide variety of socially important information, including invariant personal properties that can be used to recognize someone’s identity and highly changeable characteristics that assist in interpreting their feelings and intentions. These relatively invariant and more changeable aspects of face perception present differing everyday demands that, together with genetic and cultural influences, help determine the organization of processes involved in human face perception.
