Summary A model, using schema theory, is offered to explain inferior recognition memory for "foreign" faces. Support for this interpretation is derived from a variety of studies (total N = 671 males and females ages three years through adult): the development of facial schemata, comparative efficiency of own-race face recognition with other-race recognition, correlation between own-race and other-race recognition performance measures, and inverted face recognition.
