Rapid detection of human facial attractiveness in groups (2017)
Thesis
Carvey, R. J. Rapid detection of human facial attractiveness in groups. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221070

In a world full of great visual repetition, humans have evolved to simplify visual processing, taking redundant information and compressing it into a simpler form (Alvarez, 2011). This compressed form is an ensemble representation, an abstract singul... Read More about Rapid detection of human facial attractiveness in groups.

Development of holistic vs. featural processing in face recognition (2014)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., & Nakabayashi, K. (2014). Development of holistic vs. featural processing in face recognition. Frontiers in human neuroscience, 8(OCT), Article ARTN 831. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2014.00831

According to a classic view developed by Carey and Diamond (1977), young children process faces in a piecemeal fashion before adult-like holistic processing starts to emerge at the age of around 10 years. This is known as the encoding switch hypothes... Read More about Development of holistic vs. featural processing in face recognition.

Long-term repetition priming and semantic interference in a lexical-semantic matching task: object names and colors (2014)
Journal Article
Lloyd-Jones, T. J., & Nakabayashi, K. (2014). Long-term repetition priming and semantic interference in a lexical-semantic matching task: object names and colors. Frontiers in psychology Frontiers Research Foundation, 5(JUN), Article ARTN 644. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00644

Using a novel paradigm to engage the long-term mappings between object names and the prototypical colors for objects, we investigated the retrieval of object-color knowledge as indexed by long-term priming (the benefit in performance from a prior enc...

Developmental differences in holistic interference of facial part recognition (2013)
Journal Article
Nakabayashi, K., & Liu, C. H. (2013). Developmental differences in holistic interference of facial part recognition. PLoS ONE, 8(10), e77504. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0077504

Research has shown that adults' recognition of a facial part can be disrupted if the part is learnt without a face context but tested in a whole face. This has been interpreted as the holistic interference effect. The present study investigated wheth... Read More about Developmental differences in holistic interference of facial part recognition.

Dissociating positive and negative influences of verbal processing on the recognition of pictures of faces and objects (2012)
Journal Article
Nakabayashi, K., Burton, A. M., Brandimonte, M. A., & Lloyd-Jones, T. J. (2012). Dissociating positive and negative influences of verbal processing on the recognition of pictures of faces and objects. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 38(2), 376-390. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0025782

Four experiments investigated the role of verbal processing in the recognition of pictures of faces and objects. We used (a) a stimulus-encoding task where participants learned sequentially presented pictures in control, articulatory suppression, and...

Beauty hinders attention switch in change detection : the role of facial attractiveness and distinctiveness (2012)
Journal Article
Chen, W., Liu, C. H., & Nakabayashi, K. (2012). Beauty hinders attention switch in change detection : the role of facial attractiveness and distinctiveness. PLoS ONE, 7(2), e32897. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0032897

Background: Recent research has shown that the presence of a task-irrelevant attractive face can induce a transient diversion of attention from a perceptual task that requires covert deployment of attention to one of the two locations. However, it is... Read More about Beauty hinders attention switch in change detection : the role of facial attractiveness and distinctiveness.

Independent influences of verbalization and race on the configural and featural processing of faces: A behavioral and eye movement study (2011)
Journal Article
Nakabayashi, K., Lloyd-Jones, T. J., Butcher, N., & Liu, C. H. (2012). Independent influences of verbalization and race on the configural and featural processing of faces: A behavioral and eye movement study. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 38(1), 61-77. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0024853

Describing a face in words can either hinder or help subsequent face recognition. Here, the authors examined the relationship between the benefit from verbally describing a series of faces and the same-race advantage (SRA) whereby people are better a...

Independent effects of colour on object identification and memory (2009)
Journal Article
Lloyd-Jones, T. J., & Nakabayashi, K. (2009). Independent effects of colour on object identification and memory. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 62(2), 310-322. https://doi.org/10.1080/17470210801954827

We examined the effects of colour on object identification and memory using a study-test priming procedure with a coloured-object decision task at test (i.e., deciding whether an object is correctly coloured). Objects were selected to have a single a... Read More about Independent effects of colour on object identification and memory.

The role of verbal processing at different stages of recognition memory for faces (2008)
Journal Article
Nakabayashi, K., & Burton, A. M. (2008). The role of verbal processing at different stages of recognition memory for faces. European Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 20(3), 478-496. https://doi.org/10.1080/09541440801946174

Four experiments examined the role of verbal processing at different stages of face recognition memory. In Experiment 1 participants learned faces with or without articulatory suppression, then engaged in an old/new recognition task. Using the same p...
