Thesis Title: Integrated processes in person perception: Matching novel faces and voices

I am a PhD student in the School of Social Sciences undertaking a thesis entitled Integrated processes in person perception: Matching novel faces and voices. My research will investigate the extent to which people look like they sound, and sound like they look. I am testing whether people make similar judgements about others regardless of whether they see their face or hear their voice, and whether it is possible to match novel faces to voices using yes / no and two-alternative-forced-choice tasks. My thesis will consider the implications of findings for models of person perception.
