[Face-research-list] Glasgow Face Matching Test 2 (GFMT2)

GLASGOW FACE MATCHING TEST 2 (GFMT2) A new psychometric test of face matching ability has been developed by UNSW Sydney and University of York and is freely available for scientific use. White, D., Guilbert, D., Varela, V.P.L. Renkins, R., & Burton, A. M. (2021). GFMT2: A psychometric measure of face matching ability. Behavior Research Methods. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13428-021-01638-x GFMT2 is a new expanded version of the original Glasgow Face Matching Test. Test forms include: GFMT2-S: A short 80 item test with test-retest reliability over a week r = 0.774. There are two equally difficult 40-item forms for use in experimental intervention studies. GFMT-Low: Specifically designed to target lower than average performers, suited for assessing acquired or developmental prosopagnosia. GFMT2-High: Specifically designed to target higher than average performers, suited for assessing super-recognisers and certain professional groups. Short tests do not contain repeating identities, nor items from the original GFMT. Image pairs now include variation in head angle, pose, expression and subject-to-camera distance, making the new test more difficult and more representative of challenges in everyday face identification tasks.
