We found significant and similar associations of facial recognition memory performance with age using two different methodologies: signal detection (SD) and delayed nonmatching-to-sample (DNM). These data demonstrate that previously reported associations between age and facial recognition memory performance were not specific to method of assessment, and that significant declines are seen as early as 50 years of age.
