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.

Men with childhood sexual experiences: The role of attachment and coping in long-term psychological adjustment ::

Patricia Lyle, M.S.
Auburn University

This survey examines both sexual and non-sexual coping responses to stress and how such responses are related to attachment to parents and friends. Additionally, comparisons between men with early sexual experiences and those without such experiences will be possible. This research is a replication and extension of my thesis study in which rates of early sexual experience were near 20% and there was a .43 correlation between parental attachment and the use of sexualized coping behavior when under stress. The current project will examine non-sexual coping as well for similar relationships with attachment.
College students may be able to negotiate with their professors for extra credit for participation
