Evaluation of Person Interactions ::

Susanne Quadflieg
New York University

This experiment has ended. Here is a debriefing and description of what was done: "In our study, we presented participants with a series of photographs. Each photograph showed two people involved in an interaction. For instance, participants would see a person giving a gift to another, two people carrying boxes, a couple dancing and so on. In each picture, one of the two individuals was marked with a star (*). Participants were asked to focus on this target when making their judgments. For each picture, we asked participants to indicate whether the person seemed intelligent, likeable, animate, able to have emotions, and machine-like. We also asked participants to rate whether they would find “seeing a person acting like this” believable, eerie, and safe. At the end of the survey, we asked participants to complete a short personality questionnaire and to answer some demographic questions (age, gender, education, religion, nationality). We are interested in how ratings on the above dimensions may differ depending on whether a person is engaged in a mainly instrumental interaction (e.g., one person helping another with carrying boxes) or in a mainly social interaction (e.g., one person engaging in a chat with another), and whether differences (if any) are influenced by a perceiver’s personality and demographic background." The instructions were: "You will be asked to look at a series of person interactions and to evaluate each interaction according to several dimensions (e.g., how safe, intelligent, likeable etc. a target person seems to you). At the end of the study, we will ask you to provide some personality information (e.g., whether you consider yourself calm, extraverted etc.) and demographic information (e.g., your age, gender, nationality). Participation will take you about 30 min. "

We are interested in common beliefs about racial groups. This study is a pilot-test for a later series of studies. We are asking you to help us by acting as an informant on your society. In this study, you will rate how much members of the United States, in general, think a number of traits are seen in members of different races. We will also ask you to rate each trait on how negative or positive it is. Our goal is to develop, with your help, a set of traits that will accurately represent the general public’s beliefs for use in future studies. In exchange for your participation, we will tell you about some of our more interesting hypotheses, and you will have the option to learn more about our research as it progresses. Although at this time we are primarily interested in representatives from the U.S., we would like to examine perceptions of U.S. beliefs by people from other nations as well - so we hope that if you are not from the U.S., you will still participate! Your data will be helpful to us in generating hypotheses for future studies.

10 minutes. In this experiment, we are testing a relatively new hypothesis about how, on the brain system level, reading takes place. Although reading is an important topic that has been studied for many decades, there are still many questions about how people learn to read. One potential application of our research is the development of new methods of reading instruction for people with dyslexia.
