Prosopagnosia

open access: yes, 2022
Prosopagosia is an impairment in face identity recognition affecting both the memory for familiar faces and the ability to learn new faces. Prosopagnosia exists in a relatively pure form following focal brain injury to right or bilateral occipito-temporal cortex, but can also be a symptom of more diffuse or distributed damage. The type of prosopagnosia

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 2010

Prosopagnosia: A Reclassification

The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section A, 1991
We report a quantitative investigation of three patients who presented with a profound prosopagnosia. They were tested on a series of tests of face perception, face recognition, and paired associate learning using faces. A patient with marked perceptual difficulties but no difficulty whatever in recognizing faces was tested as a control.
