Abstract
⺠3-4 year-old children identify expressions better if the faces wear sunglasses. ⺠The effect of sunglasses is reversed by 10 years of age. ⺠After age 10, sunglasses impair expression identification as much as face inversion. ⺠Adults also showed impaired classification if faces wore surgical masks. ⺠Young children showed no impairment for faces wearing surgical masks.
