Everyday life requires us to identify different faces in many different poses and views. In this study we used the inter‐extra‐ortho paradigm from Bülthoff & Edelman (1992) in order to investigate what kinds of information are used for recognizing faces across viewpoint. The results of three experiments provided clear evidence that faces are encoded, stored and recognized across viewpoint using component and configural information. Moreover, it was found that part‐based processing is substantially more viewpoint dependent than processing configural information. Systematic effects of viewpoint are discussed in a computational framework based on key frames that allowed modelling the psychophysical data.
