:: Body-Modification and Emotions ::
  Melanie Bromley
California State University, San Bernardinoonline pa
  Breast implants, acrylic fingernails, daily workouts at the gym as docile as this list may seem it has important ramifications regarding the outward expression of our internal selves to the rest of the world. When people alter their physical appearance, they are nonverbally trying to communicate something to the rest of society. Body-modification is the practice of altering ones physical appearance via piercings or tattoos. Although body-modifications are traditionally looked upon as eccentric, they are increasingly becoming fashionable adornments in today's western culture. In this study we are looking at what effects emotions have on the motivation for the acquisition of body-modifications.

  Marita Kenrick & David Mallard
Charles Sturt University Australia
  The aim of the study is to improve our understanding of how reliable eyewitness memory is, and about the factors that might make eyewitnesses more or less likely to be accurate in their memory for a crime. The experiment is divided into two parts, with the second half taking place after a 1-week interval. In part one participants view a slide sequence depicting a staged crime. Part two takes place one week later; in this part of the experiment participants are asked to make decisions concerning the staged crime viewed.

:: Neutral traits and beliefs about racial groups ::
  Elizabeth N. Bartmess
University of Michigan
  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.
