Yeah I was pulling up to the kids grandma's house, saw a kid with long red hair and a
face similar to my kid's face and mistook him for my kid.

Don't tell me a pass on this works. I agree - change hairstyle, background, clothing and
would not recognizethem.

You need to change hair and jewelry. I used that to help. I would have scored much worse.

Sherry, that was my experience too. Had it been faces alone, I would have done poorly
but there were many visual clues on hair, jewelry, lighting and even the "framing" of the
face within the picture.

Rosemary Thornton Ditto. I'm used to memorizing cues like that as shorthand for
remembering faces; this is a decent test of whether you can recognize different people

remembering faces; this is a decent test of whether you can recognize different people

I could tell the differnce because of the lighting and hair.. even some people had acne which
helped me decipher the differences. Now... if the test was just a bunch of white men, wearing th
same thing with the same lighting, I would fail miserably. I think the test could be improved for
your study.

Take what you just said, word-for-word, but simply replace the word 'white' with 'black',
'asian'. Do you think your comment would sound a bit racist to some people?

(Although to be honest, I doubt you care, because it's only white men, bleh!) Tribalism
its most insipid. Gratz.

Benjamin Alexander Smith Uh no. Face-blind realism. Many of us can't reliably identify
the race or even gender of people we meet unless it's super obvious. This is a
neurological impairment, not a cultural conditioning.

Unlike real people in the real world, many of these people had super-obvious distinguishing
characteristics, and the rest kinda stood out in the grouping for NOT having distinguishing
characteristics.. In the real world, people go out of their way to hide distinguishing marks on the
faces (even men) or cover up things that make them obviously different.

In the future, try getting a few women with the same hairstyle/color, or the same hair color and
similar styles. Try getting people without countable blemishes, or photoshopping some of them
out/moving them around, etc. Add in hats and thing… See More

Taylor LaBonté I actually have it midly and have had trouble recognizing people I've
known for years after changes in hairstyle, drastic clothing style changes, facial hair
grown/shaved, etc. However, I tested "above average" on this test because of things lik
very large curly hair, acne, photos that are much darker/oddly tinted, very few POC, les
women than men, etc. It made me guess on several that I assumed I had seen even
though I didn't recognize them fully. They should have covered the hair and used the
same lighting, and also included more POC.

Taylor LaBonté Prosopagnosia doesn't prevent you from being able to see key features
such as having earrings, being bald, having a mole below the lip, etc. It just makes it
difficult to distinguish the raw facial structures, which are more similar than most people
realize because the human brain usually dedicates immense resources to differentiatin
them.

With such obvious distinctions, this felt more like a memory task than a facial recognitio
task. I imagine most people, with or without prosopagnosia, would score similarly if the
photos were replaced with playing cards.

You need to consider that I, not knowing whether I have seen that face, just guessed it. Might
contaminate the results a little since the probability of guessing right is a 50/50 chance.

61/75. I just kept tagging them as "balding guy with hair on the side", "tanned asian with short

62/75, but I suspect this test isn't super accurate because of hair/jewellery. Things like piercings
even the clothing visible in some pictures made it a lot easier, which- though in real life is how I
help identify people- really doesn't help me in movies/tv shows when 70% of the cast is white
guys with the same damn haircut.

take this test. Yeah? Well, the pics were much too easy.

In reality I see the same people week after week after week and I can't recall who most of them
are until I am reintroduced about 4 times. Something about them has to be very unique or I just
gloss them over as straingers the next time I see them.

Forget recognizing almost anyone seen outside of my social boundaries.

I was able to rely almost solely on the hairstyles and got an above average score (I also looked
the faces but those weren’t helpful) some I could recognize based on what shirt they were wear
and the lighting. If 2 people had the same hairstyle that would be a lot more tricky and would
make it so that you need to look at the faces. Also, in myth busters they made the faces graysc
and took pictures of only faces with no hair or context clues.

them for longer to memorise then looking at caucasian person.
I did 60 out of 75, and I guess that those who grow up in mulicultural cities can do better score
then me because of the way people memorise faces. And race of people on pictures may affect
score of some tested.

The results of this were not accurate for testing facial recognition. I was able to get an above
average score because I used hair styles, the very low number of POC, and a few images bein
really bright or colored differently to pick them out. All hair should be slicked back or covered, a
photos taken in the same lighting conditions to get more accurate results. I've literally had to wa
for someone to speak to figure out if they were someone I've known for years because they
changed their hair style and beard drastically.... yet I scored 59. Comical.

Yup! Same score and same problem! This test is a joke. Everybody who knows anythin
about face blindness knows that all face blind people use hair and stuff to help them
identify people. I tried really hard to ignore the things I would usually use as clues so a
not to totally ruin the results but theres just no way to get an accurate reading on
somebody's ability to recognize facial features when there's a bunch of other things to
on. The hair, clothes, jewelry, acne and varying lighting all ruined the possibility of
accuracy.
