Something in the way they move: characteristics of identity present in faces, voices, body movements, and actions.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The recognition of familiar individuals relies not only on static features of the person but also on dynamic characteristics unique to each person's movements. This mini review synthesizes current research on the role of motion in identity recognition, examining how characteristic dynamic cues from the face, voice, and body may contribute to perceivers' ability to recognize familiar individuals. We highlight corresponding dynamic covariances that may be present across different aspects of an individual's motion, such as those linking facial and vocal motion. We evaluate the extent to which dynamic patterns might form a coherent 'dynamic fingerprint.' Finally, we consider how variability, distinctiveness, and perceiver-related factors (e.g., individual differences and neural mechanisms) shape the recognition of identity through motion. We outline open questions and propose new directions for understanding the integration of dynamic information in person perception.
