Brain Signals of Face Processing as Revealed by Event-Related Potentials

Figure 1

ERPs elicited by external (straight line) versus internal (dotted line) features of familiar faces in a recent experiment [7]. Note that N170 was larger for internal features and enhanced at the right temporal posterior site T6/P8. At the same latency, a positive peak (VPP) was present at the central midline position Cz.
