... one thought that ... Yes, that's it. That's a very good way to describe it, D. It's so very intensely them. How in the world could I not have seen them...
Someone (I've lost track of who) wrote "It's so very intensely them. How in the world could I not have seen them before? It is so obvious that it's them....
I "recognize" people in the correct context. If my coworkers are the only ones in their cubicle, then I can name them. (If someone else enters their cubicle,...
Hi everybody! I have a piece that I put together about prosopagnosia in May or June of 2006. Its the sort of piece that I think would go really well in a ...
I used to watch "My Favorite Martian" on TV, starring Ray Walston and Bill Bixby. Right after it would come, "The Courtship of Eddie's Father," again starring...
Well I wonder if you could hit west coast papers? maybe the LA Times or something? I dislike my local paper, the Oregonian. We also have a privately owned...
Try the childrensapraxia.net yahoo group and speechville.com . Lots of the kids with speech problems have global apraxia as well. BTW, a doctor on that list...

well someone on this group asked if maybe i was dyspraxic or had dysgraphia (i forget which) and i dismissed this right off and then another web page...
Glenn, I haven't read all the responses yet, so if someone else has mentioned this, nevermind. I was thinking that perhaps a scientific journal of some kind,...
When you have this "Zoom Effect" happen, are you saying that once you somehow realize who the person/actor is, you then recognize them? Will you then recognize...
... No Zack, not for me. Each occurance is it's own entity. I do not watch much TV or movies because from one frame to another I lose who is who if the major...
Hi, sorry if I repeat anything, as I haven't been able to read all the responses yet. Also, I am not faceblind, so big grain of salt here. Laura, It certainly...
In discribing the Zoom effect what I was alluding too is the effect I ... may get when he throws the ball to a reciever... Dee, I think I kind of get you here....
... It's ... A little NT take on this: I have this same thing happen to me with voices in animated movies. My wife is better at recognizing voices in these...
Yep, they say I am somewhat faceblind, but really not so significant as I perceive. One reason for that is they allow for 'guesses' instead of having a button...
Hey, Steve! Hate to break it to you, but 73% on the old-new test is NOT doing reasonably well, because the scores are not interpreted the same way you'd...
... face your mind has put together, the one you don't recognize, suddenly ... I am not presumming I am an average faceblind person (our group differs a lot)...
Thanks, Zack. I suppose the question would then become what it takes for "that person's face to be put in your memory well enough." If an NT person meets...
Thanks for the post about how they interpret the test scores, Andrea! Wow, I didn't realize that getting 72% on the "old/new" faces test meant I was in the...

Hi Steve, That's a good suggestion to limit the presentation time for the famous face test. In the test that we run in the lab, we limit it. Not sure if...
Oops, forgot the dog part. Dogs do have strong abilities related to humans specifically. They can remember faces and scents, and are very good at assessing...
Joy, When I meet someone new, I don't try to store the face unless I really want to remember them, usually for me that's about trying to remember the name. I...
Thanks for the link, Barry. But oh, no! I just did the Cambridge Facial Recognition Test, the one that is supposed to be more reliable, and all that. I scored...
Grin.... I don't remember my scores on those tests, but they were somewhere around (or at least close to) the average mark.... and I remember thinking, "wow......
I think I remember that years ago, when researchers painted a monkey pink, and returned her to her tribe, she was glad to see them, but they killed her and ate...
