On Training People to Recognize Faces
Abstract
Experiments were carried out in an attempt to validate the facial recognition element of a three-day training course in person recognition. In one experiment the subjects had to rely on memory. In two other experiments they were provided with an array of full-face photographs to match against different poses and expressions of the same faces. The performance of subjects who had received training was never reliably better than that of untrained subjects, and in one experiment was significantly worse. Ii is suggested that the emphasis on isolated facial features in the training course may be responsible for its lack of success, and that processing independent features is not a good basts for a model of facial recognition

In Woodhead et al.'s study, the trained group did not outperform the untrained group on any face identification tests.
“Surprisingly, the trained group did not outperform the untrained group on any of these tests.”

The only published evaluation of a professional facial image comparison training course was conducted in the 1970s by Woodhead, Baddeley, and Simmonds.

We know of no validation tests of facial image comparison training courses conducted since Woodhead et al.'s study.
“Although the effectiveness of facial image comparison training courses may have improved considerably in the decades since Woodhead et al.’s study, we know of no validation tests that have been conducted since.”

Professional facial image comparison training courses have not been empirically validated, so it is unknown whether they improve identification accuracy.
“However, these courses have not been empirically validated so it is unknown if they improve accuracy.”

Some recommended methods have been shown to be ineffective in improving accuracy.
“Indeed, some recommended methods have been shown to be ineffective in improving accuracy [41, 42].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
