Studies examining the visual perception of face race have revealed mixed findings regarding the presence or direction of effects on early face-sensitive event-related potential (ERP) components. Few studies have examined how early ERP components are influenced by individual differences in bottom-up and top-down processes involved in face perception, and how such factors might interact to influence early face-sensitive ERP components has yet to be investigated. Thus, the current study examined whether P100, N170, and P200 responses can be predicted by individual differences in own- and other-race face recognition, implicit racial bias, and their interaction. Race effects were observed in the P100, N170, and P200 responses. Other-race face recognition, implicit racial biases, and their interaction explained a significant amount of unique variability in N170 responses when viewing other-race faces. Responses to own-race faces were minimally influenced with only implicit racial bias predicting a significant amount of unique variability in N170 latency when viewing own-race faces. Face recognition, implicit racial bias, or their interaction did not predict P100 responses. The current findings suggest that face recognition abilities and its interaction with implicit racial bias modulate the early stages of other-race face processing.

检查面部种族的视觉感知的研究揭示了关于早期面部敏感事件相关电位 (ERP) 组件的影响存在或方向的混合结果。很少有研究研究了早期 ERP 组件如何受到涉及面部感知的自下而上和自上而下过程中的个体差异的影响，以及这些因素如何相互作用以影响早期的面部敏感 ERP 组件尚待研究。因此，目前的研究检查了 P100、N170 和 P200 反应是否可以通过自身和其他种族面部识别的个体差异、隐性种族偏见及其相互作用来预测。在 P100、N170 和 P200 反应中观察到种族效应。其他种族人脸识别，隐性种族偏见，他们的相互作用解释了在查看其他种族面孔时 N170 反应的大量独特变化。对自己种族面孔的反应受到的影响最小，只有隐含的种族偏见预测了在查看自己种族面孔时 N170 潜伏期的大量独特可变性。面部识别、隐性种族偏见或它们的相互作用并不能预测 P100 的反应。目前的研究结果表明，面部识别能力及其与隐性种族偏见的相互作用调节了其他种族面部处理的早期阶段。或者他们的互动并不能预测 P100 的反应。目前的研究结果表明，面部识别能力及其与隐性种族偏见的相互作用调节了其他种族面部处理的早期阶段。或者他们的互动并不能预测 P100 的反应。目前的研究结果表明，面部识别能力及其与隐性种族偏见的相互作用调节了其他种族面部处理的早期阶段。
