    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "In face recognition, eye gaze to the eye region is reported to\nbe associated with better performance than to the center of a\nface. Nevertheless, Caucasians and Asians differ in how much\nthey look at the eyes when they scan a face, but have\ncomparable identification performance. To resolve this issue,\nhere we test the hypothesis that optimal face recognition\nperformance involves a balance between global and local face\nprocessing. Thus, Asians may benefit from enhancement of\nlocal processing and vice versa for Caucasians. We showed\nthat local attention priming using hierarchical letter stimuli\nled to more eye-focused eye movement patterns compared to\nglobal attention priming in both Asians and Caucasians.\nHowever, Asians had better performance after local priming\nthan global priming, whereas Caucasian showed the opposite\neffect. These results suggest that engagement of global/local\nattention leads to face-center/eye biased eye movements\nrespectively, and optimal recognition performance involves\nboth global and local processing/gaze transitions between the\nface center and eyes.",
