Children with prosopagnosia may also have difficulties following the plots of television shows and movies, as they have trouble recognizing the different characters.
Some doctors have even recognized distinctions in deficits of facial perception and facial memory encoding and classified them as subfamilies of prosopagnosia.
Some of the most common category-specific agnosias involve recognition impairments for living things, but not non-living things, or human faces, as in prosopagnosia.
