Dear All Save the Date !!!!! 20th March 2013.... The following seminar will feature talks relevant to face perception researchers ....... One day workshop: Visual attention, gaze behaviour and eye tracking to explore cognition and behaviour in neuro-developmental disorders On Wednesday 20th March 2013 there will be a one day workshop which will discuss issues related to trhe study of visual attention, gaze behaviour and the use of eye tracking methods to explore typicality / atypicality of cognition and behaviour in neuro-developmental disorders. The seminar will be held in the School of Psychology, Newcastle University. This workshop is part of a seminar series entitled 'Neuro-developmental disorders: Exploring sensitive methods of assessment across development' which explores recent findings in neurodevelopmental disorders, with a particular focus on 1) the new research tools and methods used, 2) discussion of the wider applicability of these new tools and methods across different neurodevelopmental disorders, 3) identifying future challenges or controversies when studying neurodevelopmental disorders using a developmental approach. The seminar series hopes to bring together specialists and established researchers as well as post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers and early career researchers in neurodevelopmental disorders. The first workshop of the series, held in June 2012 at Kingston University, was very successful in meeting our aims. We enjoyed an exciting day of talks, which generated some very interesting discussion. The second workshop promises to be equally engaging and i being held at the Institute of Education on 11th January 2013. The seminar I am email about is the third and final in the series. The series is sponsored by the British Psychological Society and the Williams syndrome Foundation UK and is being organised by Dr Jo van Herwegen, Dr Emily Farran and Dr Debbie Riby. Confirmed speakers, and titles of presentations: Dr Mary Hanley (Queens University Belfast) Gaze behaviour to faces in Autism and Williams syndrome Dr John Swettenham (UCL) Attention and Gaze in Autism Spectrum Disorders: Biological Motion and Perceptual Capacity Dr Sue Fletcher-Watson (Edinburgh University) Eye tracking in infancy: looking for early signs of autism and atypical development Professor Letitia Naigles (UNiversity of Conneticut) Preferential looking reveals both strengths and weaknesses in the language development of children with autism Dr Marco Hessels (University of Geneva) Eye movement registration evidences construct validity in dynamic assessments: People with intellectual disabilities can reason by analogy, but you have to tell them to do so. Miss Hayley Mace (CEREBRA, Birmingham University) Eye tracking to explore spontaneous emotion discrimination and face processing in ASD, Fragile X syndrome, Cornelia de Lange syndrome and Rubinstein Taybi syndrome More information about the seminar series can be obtained from: http://www.neurodevelopmentaldisorders-seminarseries.co.uk/

famous faces showing emotion

by Karri Gillespie

Hello everyone, Hope you are all well. I am emailing to ask if anyone has or is aware of a face database which contains famous faces showing a variety of emotions that I would be allowed to use. I am aware of such a famous face database (for example, Lander & Bruce 2004; Lander & Chuang 2004; Lander & Metcalfe 2007) but I am unsure if this database is accessible to others and if the authors allow this. It doesn't matter if the images are coloured or black/white. It is just for undergraduate dissertations however I will ensure the proper referencing of any databases are of course included. Any help on this would be much appreciated. I look forward to any replies. Kind Regards, Karri Gillespie-Smith. -- The University of Stirling is ranked in the top 50 in the world in The Times Higher Education 100 Under 50 table, which ranks the world's best 100 universities under 50 years old.
