A pretest of sad artificial faces ::

Dennis Küster (1), Christiane Windeler (2)
(1) Jacobs University Bremen, (2) Universität Bremen

The aim of this study is to help us to make a selection of realistic-looking artificial faces for a later experiment. You will be asked to evaluate faces of 23 different virtual people. In some cases, we expect that the eyes will not look very realistic, in other cases the skin or the expression may be less than convincing. Completing the entire survey will take about 30 minutes. You will be asked to judge how realistic the eyes and faces look, and how sad the faces look as a whole.
