摘要:Exposure to faces biases perceptions of subsequently viewed faces such that faces similar to those seen previously are judged as more normal and attractive than they were before exposure. Here, we examine adaptation over time by adapting judges to faces manipulated in one direction and then exposing judges to an equivalent set of faces manipulated in the opposite direction to those previously seen. In the first adaptation phase, rating the attractiveness of faces transformed in identity increased the perceived normality of novel faces with characteristics similar to those viewed. In the second adaptation phase, when faces were transformed in opposite direction, no change in normality judgment from that seen after the first adaptation phase was observed (no interaction between adaptation order and adaptation condition, F1,77< 1, p = .51, η p² = .006). Our results indicated a primacy effect in adaptation in which faces seen first affected perception more than faces seen later. These results suggest that visual adaptation to faces is more complex than simple opponent-process adaptation in that it is not easily extinguished. Furthermore, this primacy effect could lead to long-lasting effects of visual adaptation.
