The primacy of biological facts is challenged by looking at the effects of social... It is common sense that our survival as individuals depends on the survival of our physical bodies.

Visual Social Cognition: A Special Issue of Visual Cognition
ISBN: 9781841699820 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is widely recognized that visual processes modulate many social interactions.

In addition, the social or affective significance of a stimulus, as well as the mood state of the observer, can have profound effects on basic attentional and perceptual processes. This special issue is aimed at elucidating the role of visual processes in social interactions by linking work on...
