“…In addition, Brown and Perrett (1993) have reported that the brows, eyes, jaw, chin, nose, mouth, and their configural relationships, all carry information about gender. Nevertheless, in the face recognition literature, existing data suggest that although young infants appear not to integrate internal feature information (i.e., eyes, nose, mouth) when recognizing familiar individuals until approximately 4 months of age (Bartrip, Morton, & de Schonen, 2001; Pascalis, de Schonen, Morton, Deruelle, & Fabre-Grenet, 1995), young infants’ recognition of unfamiliar faces from the time frame between birth and 4 months of age is led more by external features (i.e., hairline, chin, and ears) than internal features (i.e., eyes, nose, and mouth) (Rose, Jankowski, & Feldman, 2008; Turati, Macchi Cassia, Simion, & Leo, 2006). It is thus possible that external features play a role in providing infants with a basis to separate the two genders.…”
