There is a large literature on the own race bias, the finding that people are better at recognizing faces of people from their own race. Here an own gender bias is shown: Males are better at identifying male faces than female faces and females are better at identifying female faces than male faces. Encoding a person's hair is shown to account for approximately half of the own gender bias when measured using hit and false alarm rates. Remember/know judgements and confidence measures are taken. Encoding a person's hair is critical for having a "remember" recollective experience. Parallels with the own race bias and implications for eyewitness testimony are discussed.
关于同种族偏见有大量文献，即人们更擅长识别同种族人的面孔。这里展示了一种同性别偏见：男性识别男性面孔比识别女性面孔更擅长，女性识别女性面孔比识别男性面孔更擅长。当使用命中率和误报率衡量时，对一个人的头发进行编码约占同性别偏见的一半。同时进行了记住/知道判断和信心测量。对一个人的头发进行编码对于产生“记住”的回忆体验至关重要。文中讨论了与同种族偏见的相似之处以及对 eyewitness testimony 的影响。 （注：eyewitness testimony 直译为“目击者证词”，这里按常见语境意译为“目击证人的证词”可能更合适，但题目要求不添加解释，所以保留原文）
