Abstract

The influence of temporal association on the representation and recognition of objects was investigated. Observers were shown sequences of
novel faces in which the identity of the face changed as the head rotated. As a result, observers showed a tendency to treat the views as if they were of the
same person. Additional experiments revealed that this was only true if the training sequences depicted head rotations rather than jumbled views: in other
words, the sequence had to be spatially as well as temporally smooth. Results suggest that we are continuously associating views of objects to support later
recognition, and that we do so not only on the basis of the physical similarity, but also the correlated appearance in time of the objects.
