Unfamiliar face matching ability predicts the slope of face learning.

We provide the first examination of individual differences in the efficiency of face learning. Investigating individual differences in face learning can illuminate potential mechanisms and provide greater understanding of why certain individuals might be more efficient face learners. Participants completed two unfamiliar face matching tasks and a learning task in which learning was assessed after viewing 1, 3, 6, and 9 images of to-be-learned identities.

Picture this: Photographers no better than controls for recognizing unfamiliar faces.

With the exception of super recognizers and forensic examiners, people make a surprising number of errors when deciding whether photographs of unfamiliar faces belong to the same person or different people. Training protocols designed to improve professionals' (e.g.

What happens to our representation of identity as familiar faces age? Evidence from priming and identity aftereffects.

Matching identity in images of unfamiliar faces is error prone, but we can easily recognize highly variable images of familiar faces - even images taken decades apart. Recent theoretical development based on computational modelling can account for how we recognize extremely variable instances of the same identity. We provide complementary behavioural data by examining older adults' representation of older celebrities who were also famous when young.

Vaping Prevention in a Middle School Population Using CATCH My Breath.

Introduction: The number of teens using electronic cigarettes in the United States has reached epidemic proportions. One in 20 middle school youth currently vapes regularly (Wang et al., 2020), supporting the need for e-cigarette education and prevention programs in this vulnerable population.

Becoming Familiar With a Newly Encountered Face: Evidence of an Own-Race Advantage.

Adults' ability to match identity in images of unfamiliar faces is impaired for other- compared with own-race faces; their ability to match identity in images of familiar faces is independent of face race. Exposure to within-person variability in appearance plays a key role in face learning. Past research suggests that children need exposure to higher levels of variability than adults to learn a new face-a difference that has been attributed to experience.

How does a newly encountered face become familiar? The effect of within-person variability on adults' and children's perception of identity.

Adults and children aged 6years and older easily recognize multiple images of a familiar face, but often perceive two images of an unfamiliar face as belonging to different identities. Here we examined the process by which a newly encountered face becomes familiar, defined as accurate recognition of multiple images that capture natural within-person variability in appearance. In Experiment 1 we examined whether exposure to within-person variability in appearance helps children learn a new face.

Mechanism of cell death induced by cis-3, 4', 5-trimethoxy-3'-aminostilbene in ovarian cancer.

Objective: Stilbene derivative, cis-3, 4', 5-trimethoxy-3'-aminostilbene (stilbene 5c), is highly potent to induce cell death in ovarian cancer cells. This study is to investigate its mechanism to induce cell death.

Methods: UCI101 ovarian cancer cells were used for this study.
