The aim of this study is to investigate the emotions people experience when looking at different types of faces. If you would like to participate you will be asked to complete a short task on the computer and then to answer two questionnaires. There are no hazards or risks and no reason for you to experience any after-effects, discomfort or distress. The whole procedure usually takes no more than 15 minutes. Please note that the faces will span the full range of human appearance.
