You Can Test Your Facial Recognition Abilities for Free Online--Less Than 1% of People Are "Super-Recognizers" of Faces

Have you ever seen someone's face in passing, then recognized that same person years later? If so, you may be a "super-recognizer." Researcher Dr. Josh P. Davis at the University of Greenwich has developed a quick and free online test to identify people who are exceptionally good at human facial recognition. While many may be good or even great at recognizing others, Davis hypothesizes super-recognizers account for less than one percent of the population. Davis' online test takes less than five minutes to complete.
