A Tutorial on Representational Similarity Analysis for Research in Social Cognition
Representational similarity analysis (RSA) is a simple and widely used technique for comparing relationships between diverse types of measures using a common set of elements. For instance, RSA allows researchers to compare brain and behavioral measures of the same set of participants, or response patterns to the same set of stimuli across different conditions. This technique effectively quantifies relationships between complex, high-dimensional m…
Normality mediates the effect of symmetry on facial attractiveness
Although symmetry, averageness, and sexual dimorphism are usually considered important to facial attractiveness, there are mixed findings regarding whether and how symmetry influences facial attractiveness. The present study introduced "facial normality" to explain the inconsistency of previous research. We hypothesized that symmetry only increased facial attractiveness when it improved facial normality. We manipulated symmetry and normality simu…
