Digest: Disentangling plumage and behavior contributions to iridescent signals*

Hugo Gruson
2019 Evolution  
To what extent do plumage properties and behavior interact to produce visual signals?  ...  Simpson and McGraw (2019) propose an elegant and novel experimental set-up to dissociate behavior and color and assess their relative effects in the resulting iridescent signal.  ...  The authors also investigated the relative contributions of both plumage and shuttle behavior to the resulting iridescent signal.  ...

Interactants' Most Intimate Self-disclosure in Interactions with Virtual Humans [chapter]

Sin-Hwa Kang, Jonathan Gratch
2009 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
Virtual human research tends to focus exclusively on appearance or behavior in assessing agent effectiveness, whereas other studies of human social interaction emphasize aspects of the social context,  ...  However, no studies of virtual humans have investigated the impact of the combination of interactants' visual appearance and AFI on their social responses, specifically revealing their intimate information  ...  Virtual human research tends to focus exclusively on appearance or behavior in assessing agent effectiveness, whereas other studies of human social interaction emphasize aspects of the social context,  ...

Anthropomorphized Financial Robo-advisors and Investment Advice-taking Behavior

Bingjie Deng, Michael Chau
2021 Americas Conference on Information Systems  
This study investigates the visually anthropomorphic designs of robo-advisors and their effects on consumers' trust and risk perceptions, as well as their investment advice-taking behavior.  ...  It is unclear, however, how visual designs of robo-advisors will have spillover effects on the decisions involving high risk and uncertainty (i.e., investment advice-taking behavior).  ...  The only difference is the visual appearance of the robo-advisor.  ...

Feature-based face representations and image reconstruction from behavioral and neural data

Adrian Nestor, David C. Plaut, Marlene Behrmann
2015 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America  
of its neural homolog, and (iii) high-level face representations retain sufficient detail to support reconstructing the visual appearance of different facial identities from either neural or behavioral  ...  However, most investigations consider only a few handpicked features. Thus, a comprehensive, unbiased assessment of face space still remains to be conducted.  ...  Also, several of the properties above appear to be reflected in the structure of both behavioral and neural data.  ...

When perception says "no" to action: Approach cues make steep hills appear even steeper

Dario Krpan, Simone Schnall
2014 Journal of Experimental Social Psychology  
Abstract Previous research has established that people's resources and action capabilities influence visual perception, and for example, make hills appear more or less steep.  ...  We suggest that inflated perceptual visual estimates in the face of challenging environments are adaptive because they discourage future actions that may be costly to perform.  ...  We argue that approach makes steep hills appear even steeper because of the functional role of visual perception in discouraging the energetically costly behavior of climbing.  ...
