This could potentially impact social interactions with peers and educators, as well as the ability to form important relationships, according to a new study led by 快播视频.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.yorku.ca\/2020\/12\/21\/feel-like-youre-suffering-from-face-blindness-research-shows-masks-change-the-way-we-process-faces\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Previous research<\/a>&nbsp;found mask wearing hindered facial recognition in adults. This new study by researchers at 快播视频 and&nbsp;Ben-Gurion University in Israel,&nbsp;looked at 72 children, ages six to 14, to see if their experience was similar to that of adults.&nbsp;Faces were presented with or without masks, both upright and inverted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFaces are among the most important visual stimuli. We use facial information to determine different attributes about a person, including their gender, age, mood and intentions. We use this information to navigate through social interactions,\u201d says 快播视频 Assistant Professor&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/health.yorku.ca\/health-profiles\/?dept=&amp;mid=1703420\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Erez Freud<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;of the Faculty of Health, the study\u2019s senior author.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research shows children\u2019s&nbsp;face-perception abilities are not only profoundly impaired&nbsp;when people are masked, but their level of impairment is greater than that experienced by adults. Children have about a 20 per cent impairment rate for recognizing masked faces compared to about a 15 per cent rate for adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RQo83mKKPJM&amp;t=2s\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RQo83mKKPJM&amp;t=2s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">video<\/a> of Freud discussing the findings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study also revealed children process faces differently when the face they are looking at is masked, compared to one that\u2019s not. Their ability to holistically process faces, which is necessary for face perception, was disrupted and became more analytical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Figure-1-mask-research-848x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Example of masked and unmasked faces shown to children\" class=\"wp-image-299627\" width=\"451\" height=\"545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2022\/02\/Figure-1-mask-research-848x1024.jpg 848w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2022\/02\/Figure-1-mask-research-331x400.jpg 331w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2022\/02\/Figure-1-mask-research-1273x1536.jpg 1273w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2022\/02\/Figure-1-mask-research-1697x2048.jpg 1697w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 451px) 100vw, 451px\" \/><figcaption>Example of masked and unmasked faces shown to children<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, humans process the face as a whole rather than by its individual features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNot only do masks hinder the ability of children to recognize faces, but they also disrupt the typical, holistic way that faces are processed,\u201d says&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/health\/lab\/freud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Freud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The researchers used the kids\u2019 version of the&nbsp;Cambridge Face Memory Test \u2013 the most validated measure of face perception abilities in humans \u2013 to test the ability of school-aged children to recognize faces with and without masks, both upright and inverted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf holistic processing is impaired and recognition is impaired, there is a possibility it could impair children\u2019s ability to navigate through social interactions with their peers and teachers, and this could lead to issues forming important relationships,\u201d says Freud.&nbsp;\u201cGiven the importance of faces to social interactions, this is something we need to pay attention to.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With children back to school with mask mandates once again, future research should explore the social and psychological ramifications of wearing masks on children\u2019s educational performance, he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The paper, published Feb. 7 in the journal&nbsp;<em>Cognitive Research: Principles &amp; Implications<\/em>,&nbsp;was led by Freud and undergraduate psychology student <strong>Andreja Stajduhar<\/strong>, in collaboration with Professor <strong>Shayna Rosenbaum<\/strong> \u2013 all from 快播视频\u2019s Department of Psychology and the&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/cvr\/\" target=\"_blank\">Centre for Vision Research<\/a>.
