Preferred term

feature-selection model  

Definition

  • A model of the own-race bias, according to which people do not select the same features for same-race faces and other race faces (Levin, 1996; 2000). Same-race faces are better recognized, as they tend to be individuated. Other-race faces are less well recognized, as they tend to be perceived categorically (race).
