Face processing is an important aspect of social cognition, and adults are considered to be experts in this domain. Research indicates that this expertise is based upon the use of configural information (the spacing among features such as eyes and nose) in faces. The processing of configural information is generally not evident until around 5 months of age. Experiment 1 examined 3.5-month-old infants' ability to process differences in configural spacing seen in the typical population. Replicating prior findings, infants failed to process configural information.

520 $a Face processing is an important aspect of social cognition, and adults are considered to be experts in this domain. Research indicates that this expertise is based upon the use of configural information (the spacing among features such as eyes and nose) in faces. The processing of configural information is generally not evident until around 5 months of age. Experiment 1 examined 3.5-month-old infants' ability to process differences in configural spacing seen in the typical population. Replicating prior findings, infants failed to process configural information.
520 $a Further experiments examined the influence of attention on configural processing. Experiments 2A and 2B examined the effects of external information (i.e., hair, neck), as prior research demonstrates that the removal of this information allows infants to attend to relevant internal features of faces. Infants demonstrated sensitivity to configural information in faces in which the external information was removed when the faces were upright (Expt. 2A) but not when they were inverted (Expt. 2B). These results indicate that young infants are sensitive to configural information in faces if external features are not present. Experiment 3 investigated configural processing using dynamic, multimodal stimuli (videos). Past research indicates that multimodal stimuli facilitate the discrimination of information by specifying relevant information through redundancy, thus guiding attention. However, infants failed to exhibit sensitivity to configural information in dynamic, multimodal videos of faces. Together, these results indicate that deficits in configural information processing at 3.5 months of age are attention based rather than due to an inability to process fine spatial information.
