The police in Britain have issued two facial composites of a man in the Madeleine McCann abduction case. However, they have not taken advantage of our research indicating a) that an average image of two composites of the same target may help and b) an animated caricature can also help identification. I’ve created average and animated caricature composites; please share this link in any way you can; the police need names. I confess I don’t know how to contact them from outside the UK but hopefully people with information will find a way. Here’s the link, with refs to the original research: <a href="http://psych-survey.stir.ac.uk/McCannComposites.html">http://psych-survey.stir.ac.uk/McCannComposites.html</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks, Peter<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Peter Hancock<br>Professor<br>Psychology, School of Natural Sciences<br>University of Stirling<br>FK9 4LA, UK<br>phone 01786 467675<br>fax 01786 467641<br><a href="http://www.psychology.stir.ac.uk/staff/phancock"><span style='color:blue'>http://www.psychology.stir.ac.uk/staff/phancock</span></a></span> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><DIV align=left><HR>
