Abstract:

Research on familiar face processing has attracted more attentions. In the past decades, understanding of familiar face processing through a variety of cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, and relatively accurate survey of functional neuroimaging investigations has achieved considerable progresses. This article reviews the influencing factors, functional modes and involved neural basis of familiar face processing and the processing abnormalities in clinical manifestation.

Key words: personal familiar face, familiar face processing, neural mechanism
