How good is your memory?

Mine confirmed what I've always known -- I have a terrible memory for faces!
I was random-guessing for most of the facial recognition portion, it was that bad.

Can't quite figure out how to copy my chart but I scored:
8 digits on Forward Digit Span
69/72 on Cambridge Face Memory Test
13/25 on Verbal Paired Associates Test

I had a horrible time with the word pairs. I couldn't come up with any mental images to help me remember them, because most of them were verbs and abstract nouns. Erg!

yeah....like I have 20 minutes in a row today!

pah!

I forgot what I was doing and it was over when I came back from the kitchen.

10 digits on the Forward span
69/72 faces
13/25 word pairs


I'm surprised I scored as well as I did on the word pairs, I was randomly guessing on most of them. With the numbers, I said them out loud in groups of three as they were happening, because I know from experience that I can't remember a damn thing if all I do is look at it. (Said the words out loud as I was seeing them too, but it didn't seem to do much good.)

You were able to remember sequences of digits that were 5 digits long. Based on the results we have so far, the average person who takes this test is able to remember 6 digits.

You correctly identified 49 out of 72 faces. Based on the results we have so far, the average person who takes this test is able to identify 56 out of 72 faces.

You correctly identified 8 out of 25 word pairs. Based on the results we have so far, the average person who takes this test is able to identify 13 out of 25 word pairs.

Not so good. I would attempt to improve, but I'd forget...

I got average on the faces and the numbers. (Which annoyed me, because I made an honest mistake on the 7 digit level, and then I hit the wrong key on the second 7-digit one.. so it marked me down for six. I know I can do at least 7.)

I was off the scale on the words. Off the bottom, that is. I just have no capability to remember stuff like that with no context to tie it to.

I was doing great on the faces until I realised I was pressing the 2 key instead of the 1 lol.

glatt 05-22-2009 01:25 PM

It froze up on me when I got a bit into the 7 digits and after it already had fed me the stupid words.

I'm convinced I was doing well on the numbers, would have been as bad as Sleeve on the words, and who knows about the faces?

bluecuracao 05-22-2009 01:25 PM

I thought I got all the face ones right, dammit. And while I knew I would suck at the digit sequences, I was very surprised that I got as many word pairs as I did--I felt like I was guessing for most of them.

I did much better on the numbers than I expected (higher than ave) but lower on the word pairs (slightly below average) and below on the faces...except for about a third of the test I was pressing the 1 when I mreant to press the 2. I am pretty sure it'd have been higher on that had I actually pressed the right key lol.

Bizarre that I'd score high on the numbers. I would have thought I'd suck at those and score high on words.

You need to type in more Microsoft CD-Keys.
