Depending on the previous research one reads, face aftereffects may or may not partially transfer across viewpoints. Two experiments are reported that explore this face-identity aftereffect by varying the adaptor type. Adaptation occurs when different views of the identity are used and even when the person's name is the adaptor. Brief exposure or nationality did not produce adaptation. In a third experiment, the role of visualisation was explored. Participants with higher visualisation scores showed greater adaptation to names than those with lower scores. These findings suggest non-facial identity cues can lead to a facial adaptation effect and that visualisation may be the mechanism behind this.
根据之前阅读的研究，面部后效可能会或可能不会部分跨视角转移。本文报告了两项实验，通过改变适应刺激类型来探究这种面部身份后效。当使用身份的不同视图时，甚至当人的名字作为适应刺激时，都会发生适应。短暂暴露或国籍不会产生适应。在第三个实验中，探究了视觉化的作用。视觉化得分较高的参与者比得分较低的参与者对名字的适应更强。这些发现表明，非面部身份线索可导致面部适应效应，而视觉化可能是其背后的机制。
