Inverting line drawings of faces

1This manuscript was started in Stirling when the first author was staying there with a research Grant from the Swiss National Fond. We want to thank Alexia Knüsel and Anne Zbinden for their help in data collection and Adrian von Mühlenen who allowed to publish his face to illustrate the stimulus material. Moreover, we thank two anonymous reviewers for their comments.
