What is, in your opinion, the "function(s)" responsible for the systematic evocation of similarities between faces ? I am also guilty of this "you look like" compulsion (even when it comes to voice actors "It's so and so 's voice !" and melodies) .
This is a selection of information aspects (according to Aushra definitions) needed for the task imho.
. An Information element that can perceive the the object as it is ; Se seems appropriate [Perception of the object’s appearance and form] (Note that I only use that part of Se because it's enough for the task).
. An Information element that can detect, compare and evaluate the ratio between objects ; Ti seems appropriate [Through this element the individual receives information about the objective ratio between the objects, about their weight, size, value and any other properties that are commensurate]
. An Information element that can recall an Image from
subconscious memory. Now, this is a bit tricky because it seems like we don't have conscious control of the selection of the image that comes to consciousnesses. It's similar to an inspiration. I would say that Ne is at play along with Si which would give us the impression of some kind of satisfaction induced by the matching i.e a pleasant sensation of harmony (more or less).
What do you think ?
