[Face-research-list] Many face collaborative project, on behalf of Lisa DeBruine

Lisa DeBruine asked me to post this. Outlook does unpleasant things to links, so if they don't work, try cut and paste on the actual link addresses. With the rise of the "Big Team Science<https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00150-2>" movement, it's time to discuss potentially developing a "ManyFaces" collaboration of face researchers. Like other initiatives, face research would benefit from a more diverse sample of subjects, especially in social perception. Face research also has a stimulus generalisability problem: we tend to reuse image sets with low diversity of age and ethnicity. An international collaboration could tackle this problem by pooling resources, but needs strong coordination to manage this reproducibly and ethically. 75 people have indicated interest<https://forms.gle/fgtG8E4KHy59iNn66> so far, and have started collecting thoughts on a collaborative document<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X6b3am7zwDYXT2-TUR-a85-xG-c…ng>. You can share the link below with any face research colleagues (and students), but please don't post the editable link to social media directly. You can post a link to the interest form (https://forms.gle/fgtG8E4KHy59iNn66) to any public site, however.
