Face memory AND Object memory test

Post Reply New Topic

My results are so bad that it's embarrasing to post them what would cause this low of scores except for like being mentally ret*d? ADHD? I really don't know, but this is really bad. REALLY bad. The only reason I probably did better on the verbal one is because the sample size was so low.

I was surprised by the higher than expected score I got for name recognition. I reflect that I maybe remember names that I see written or that I speak better than names that I hear in introduction or in conversation. I didn't realise that all the faces were female, I thought some were male.


My results:

Face Recognition Memory
In the face recognition test, you were asked to learn the faces of 10 women. When you were tested on these faces, you had to indicate whether a face on the screen was one you learned or one that you hadn't seen before.
Out of 20 familiar faces, you correctly responded that you had seen 5 faces before.
Out of 30 unfamiliar faces, you correctly responded that you had NOT seen 27 faces before.
Overall, you got 64% correct! The average score on this test is 85% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was less than 1.

Object Recognition Memory
In the object recognition test, you were asked to memorize 10 images of eyeglasses. When you were tested on these eyeglasses, you had to indicate whether a pair of eyeglasses on the screen was one you learned or one that you hadn't seen before.
Out of 20 familiar eyeglasses, you correctly responded that you had seen 18 eyeglasses before.
Out of 30 unfamiliar eyeglasses, you correctly responded that you had NOT seen 25 eyeglasses before.
Overall, you got 86% correct! The average score on this test is 86% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was 50.

Verbal Recognition Memory

Overall, you got 83% correct! The average score on this test is 77% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was 65.

I did too well which makes me suspicious. in real life my face recognition is quite poor. It's not like faces keep still in real life, nor can you stare blankly at people to memorise their face. It definitely doesn't reflect my abilities irl. I have had two beers though, maybe that helped!

Looks like I'm the only one with consistently bad scores in all three areas! That's something to be proud of

I didn't realise that the faces were all of women until the end of the test...And the fact that I received a somewhat high score in face recognition is misleading, because I entered 'no' when I wasn't sure...even if I had seen all those faces before, I probably still would have entered 'no'. (does that make any sense?)
I also didn't think I was that good at object and name recognition, it seemed to go by instinct rather than thinking about it.

I think i should've done worse on the verbal/name part of the test, I'm terrible with names. The other stuff I pretty much expected, and yet am still pleasantly surprised. If I do have some sort of problem with face recognition, it's more an issue with how to greet someone when i'm not sure weather or not it is the person (shyness i guess?).

Face Recognition: 94%
Object Recognition: 94%
Verbal Recognition: 92%

This test is really basic, and of course, is performed while we're sitting quietly at our computers, not out in a noisy and crowded public place. I'm pretty sure my sensory overload is to blame for my failure to remember the names and faces of people I encounter in public, not to mention my lack of memory for directions. Trying to hear and process someone's name and then connect it to their face, while attempting to screen out the surrounding sensory chaos, is a much more complex process than anything I had to do on that test. It was a fun test, though.

Yep. That's me alright. I'm absolutely terrible at remembering faces. Im not sure, but isin't impairment in facial recognitoin an Aspie characteristic?

Sat through the test four more times and I only made a very marginal improvement on faces in the first three sittings but still way below average. Even after the 5th attempt I was still in the bottom 25 percentile.
