This photo was frantically forwarded on the Internet some time ago, and this photo looks normal on the surface, a tall beauty carrying a red doll. But when you look closely, you will find that it is very weird. This is a scary photograph of a woman leaning over, indicating that she is looking back, and then her hair covers her face, barely able to see her chin. Head in the back! Truly terrifying!

In fact, the scary photo is called the "Thatcher effect" phenomenon (translated as the Thatcher effect), which was first studied by psychologist Peter Thompson in 1980, and he used the photo of Mrs. Dezor as a teacher (below), in short, when the face is reversed, our ability to recognize the face will be weakened, and even the abnormality will not be detected (such as the eyes and mouth are reversed).

Why? Many people have proposed various explanations, and at least three theories are as follows: that is, we identify a person through "facial expressions", so when we are reversed, the eyes and mouth, which are the core organs of "expression", are better recognized because they are modified, so we are not aware.

2, we use two frames to identify the face, one is the face itself, the other is the direction of the vein, the coordination between the two leads to the relevant phenomenon.

3, we identify the face is two steps, is to first look at the local features, and then look at the association between the features, so when the strange photo is reversed, this double step can not be completed.
