As so many of you are doing web experiments or interested in web experiments, I thought I'd share our recent paper comparing data from web and lab samples for different measures including face and emotion recognition:

Germine, L., Nakayama, K., Duchaine, B.C., Chabris, C.F., Chatterjee, G., & Wilmer, J.B. (in press). Is the web as good as the lab? Comparable findings from Web and lab in cognitive/perceptual experiments. Psychonomic Bulletin & Review. 

Essentially we find comparable means, standard deviations, and internal reliability for web and lab-based samples on these tests.  We hope it'll be a resource for other researchers who are thinking about using web-based methods and those who want to address reviewer skepticism about web methods for face recognition research.  

Please let me know if you have questions.  

Best,

Laura
