AB's performance in the Benton-Allen Face Recognition Test showed errors and slow speed, but not clinically abnormal. AB demonstrated back-and-forth behavior between choices and the standard face. The Modified Bruce-Young Model was created to explain AB's abilities. Super-recognizers have exceptional face memory even in degraded conditions. Explore how memory fits into the Bruce-Young Model.

AB and the Benton-Allen Face Recognition Test AB’s Performance: In terms of errors, poor, but not clinically abnormal; in terms of speed, very, very slow Also, it was observed that AB went back-and-forth many times between each choice and the standard face (at the top)
Would AB mistake a person for a hat? NO! AB knows that a face shape with basic features is a human face
Since the Bruce-Young Model couldn’t explain these two abilities of AB, it was MODIFIED
The Modified Bruce-Young Model Conspec Feature-by-feature processing Person-by-feature ID
The Other Side of the Spectrum Super-recognizers Have incredibly good memory for faces even after decades and in degraded viewing conditions How do we explain them using the Bruce-Young Model?
