Good luck with your new position Jemma!
A lovely “farewell & good luck dinner” last night for @JemmaCollova who is leaving us for an exciting new position with WA Police. We are happy for Jemma (1st photo) but sad (2nd photo)to be losing such a talented researcher, generous collaborator & wonderful human. @UWApsych

Who needs a twitter thread when you can create a GIF about your research, with @JeremyWilmer @C_AMSutherland 💁‍♀️ In our PNAS twin study paper, we find that unique experiences influence who we learn to trust: bit.ly/twin_truststudy @UWApsych @ScienceUWA

New preprint: Do people believe that facial features (=static morphological properties of a face) are indicative of personality traits? We examine the prevalence, structure, and correlates of lay beliefs in physiognomy: psyarxiv.com/8dq4x (w/ @tony_m_evans and others)

Excited to share my PhD results now in press, JPSP! We find children's faces are not evaluated on the same dimensions as adult faces. These results support the functioinal assumption underlying impressions and suggest considerable dimension flexibility researchgate.net/publication…

Photographer Rebecca Huchings has produced some interesting photos reflecting on #prosopagnosia #faceblindness. The disrupted images left me feeling thrown off balance & frustrated by the missing information. Mmm - much like living with face blindness! klfm967.co.uk/news/klfm-news…

In press #JEPGeneral: Gender Biases in Impressions from Faces👩👨🔍 We found: (1) women are judged negatively to the extent their looks don't conform to expectations. (2) this is because facial info is evaluated differently across genders (not bc diff info is used btw genders).
