“…For instance, some studies differentiated internal and external facial features in facial memory (Meinhardt-Injac et al., 2010; Nie, 2018; Nie, Jiang, et al., 2014; Nie, Jiang, et al., 2015). Internal features include the forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, cheeks, and mouth, while external features refer to hairstyle, ears, chin, and facial contours (Bartlett et al., 2009; Jones & Bartlett, 2009; Nie, 2018; Nie, Jiang, et al, 2014; Nie, Jiang, et al, 2015). Research on recognition of new faces that were reconstructed by altering internal or external features found that brain activation was similar for facial memory comparisons between a whole familiar face and a new face with internal facial features from a familiar face.…”
