Project:
Title: Influence of emotional expression on social behavior.
Abstract: Does the perception of emotional expression change the way we socially interact? To answer this question, social attention and corresponding changes in action patterns are investigated, using state of the art virtual reality equipment. This approach combines standardized testing with an ecologically valid environment. Furthermore, underlying brain mechanisms are studied, using functional MRI and EEG.
