Inversion disrupts encoding of faces because of the disruption of configural encoding as evident in the Thatcher illusion (Thompson 1980, Perception 9 483-484). Here we consider the effect of rotation on the loss of configural encoding in a same/different matching paradigm. Participants decided whether two faces were of the same type (both normal or both Thatcherised) or not, at five angles of rotation (0 degrees, 45 degrees , 90 degrees, 135 degrees, 180 degrees). When the faces were both of the same person, the disruption due to rotation for 'same-type' judgments was linear and approximately equal for normal and Thatcherised face pairs. In experiment 2, with different-person face pairs, the effect of rotation was much greater for Thatcherised face pairs than for normal face pairs. These findings are in contrast to those reported by Boutsen and Humphreys (2003, Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology A 56 955-975), and reasons for these differences, along with implications, are discussed.
倒置会干扰面部编码，因为构型编码受到了干扰，这在撒切尔效应中很明显（汤普森，1980年，《感知》第9卷，第483 - 484页）。在此，我们探讨在相同/不同匹配范式中旋转对构型编码缺失的影响。参与者要判断两张脸是否属于同一类型（均为正常脸或均为撒切尔化脸），旋转角度有五个（0度、45度、90度、135度、180度）。当两张脸是同一个人的脸时，对于“同类型”判断，旋转造成的干扰呈线性，正常脸对和撒切尔化脸对的干扰大致相同。在实验2中，对于不同人的脸对，撒切尔化脸对比正常脸对的旋转影响要大得多。这些发现与布特森和汉弗莱斯（2003年，《实验心理学季刊A》第56卷，第955 - 975页）所报告的结果形成对比，我们还讨论了这些差异的原因及其影响。
