 To examine the mechanisms underlying impaired visual information processing in prosopagnosia, we investigated the visual integration ability of IM, an adult male patient with prosopagnosia but without object agnosia, using the element presentation method (Ikeda et al 1978). Showing the line drawings of objects whose elements were presented successively under various SOAs (stimulus onset asynchrony), we asked both IM and normal participants to name (Experiment 1) or to match (Experiment 2) the presented objects. In both experiments, IM revealed a marked deficit in visual object recognition. His performance suffered far more than that of normal participants not only in the long SOA condition, in which it was difficult to integrate visual elements, but also in the short SOA condition, in which it was easy to integrate visual elements. These results suggest that IM has severe problems in integrating visual elements as a whole, and that this is likely the root cause of his prosopagnosia.
