Fixed versus flexible features in dissociable neural processing subsystems

Burgund, E. D., & Marsolek, C. J.


Implementational-level evidence for dissociable neural subsystems is a critical element that is missing from the analysis in the target article. The question of whether fixed or flexible features are used in visual-form recognition may have different answers across different subsystems; the evidence that features typically are created during category learning may apply most directly to a specific visual-form subsystem.
