Page 1 of Do you suffer from face blindness?

Interesting if you have 10 undistracted minutes to take a test. I did the Cambridge one...

http://www.faceblind.org/facetests/index.php

Out of 72 faces, you correctly identified 49.
In other words, you got 68% correct.
On our previous version of this test, the average person with normal face recognition was able to recognize about 80% of the faces. If you correctly identified less than 65% of the faces, this may indicate face recognition difficulties.

I think I have a very good memory for faces, combined with a very bad short term memory!

You were familiar with 30 of the people in this test.

If we exclude the ones you were unfamiliar with, you got 100% correct.

Assuming you got the same faces choice as me, you did well to identify Condaleeza Rice.
I`m afraid I put her down as Michelle Obama.
I do hope that doesn`t mean I`m racist. :D

Woo hoo:

It was funny, some of them I could only think of character names, really had to think to get actor names, but I thought I was bad with names and faces.

is it bad I had no idea who Condaleeza Rice was? My midn went blank for a couple of the others.

I have no problem with recognising faces.  It`s putting a name to them I have trouble with.
