Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Distinctive faces are better remembered than typical ones. Such a result might be considered to come partly from the effects of facial distinctiveness on attentional processes. To test this view, Ryu and Chaudhuri (2007) examined to use two different attentional tasks that induced attentional blink. The present study investigated the effects of facial distinctiveness on attentional processes in change-detection task and face-identification task. Change-detection task required participants to detect changes that occurred between two pairs of faces within 500ms. Changes involving the distinctive face of a pair didn't tend more likely to be detected than those involving a typical face. Face-identification task required participants to identify either a distinctive or a typical face embedded in each of RSVP sequences. The identification accuracy of distinctive faces were not consistently higher than typical faces.
