Think positive! Resolving human motion ambiguity in the presence of disease threat
Recently, approach-avoidance tendencies and visual perception biases have been increasingly studied using bistable point-light walkers (PLWs). Prior studies have found a facing-the-viewer bias when one is primed with general threat stimuli (e.g. angry faces), explained by the "error management theory", as failing to detect a threat as approaching is riskier than the opposite. Importantly, no study has explored how disease threat - linked to the b…
The impact of Covid ‐19 concerns on perceiving others' faces

The present study investigated if priming disease concerns about COVID‐19 would change people's perception of neutral faces on perceived …
