CFMT+: Cambridge Face Memory Test—Long Form (Russell et al., 2009); MMT: Models Memory Test (Bate et al., 2018); BTWF: Before They Were Famous test (Russell et al., 2009); AFRT: Adult Face Recognition Test (Belanova et al., 2018).

Reliability and frequency of use are reported for each test.

Reliability estimates for these tests are not available in the published literature and were calculated for this article from the 200 self-referred super-recognisers published in Bate et al. (2018).
