... Yes, I have a suggestion. You could add this face: http://www.rdos.net/eng/asperger.htm And do some morphings on it to create random variation. Then mix it...
robert, that was a good test. pretty hard - as usual. does the data you collect include the amount of time spent doing the test? i guess that would be kind of ...
... Actually, thats the easy part. :-) Smart people like Robert know that time is a serious mitigating circumstance in tests like this, which is why he was...
I took the test... but I put the + after my name, not my email address. Sorry! First suggestion: you might consider adding an "I don't know" option. Second...

My brother and I rejoiced when we found out about prosopagnosia -- it explains so much for us. However, when I read about fellow prosopagnosiacs on the web, I...
Faceblindness (or perhaps more accurately, difficulty in recognizing faces) is a symptom that varies in severity - from the relatively subtle through to the...
