Just curious, have  you asked the authors of the original study whether they would allow you to use their materials?

I have not contacted them yet no. The although it would help with replicating their results, it would unfortunately does not include the sunglasses condition. The sunglasses condition is actually the primary reason behind this, as I hypothesize that they could result in opposite results due to masking the eyes.

I think it's unlikely you'll find a single database that has all the conditions you need. Would it be sufficient to have multiple databases that cover the conditions?

I belive that may have to be the option then.I was hoping that somewhere there was a good database for all conditions such as a Michael Tarr database. I am thinking that perhaps in stead of running the same model in each condition then, if it would be fine to have different models but a larger stimulus pool. I was planing to do a repeated measures, exposing each participant to the entire pool of stimuli. Do you think that this would be minimal, in how much power I lose, by having different models in all the different conditions?

could anyone please provide some advice? In stead of having same model face represented in each condition, such as in the original study, would it still be acceptable to compare different faces, if i use 30 stimuli per condition. I understand i will lose some power by doing this but i hope with 30 per condition this will compensate for that.

Since it seems that I was unable to locate any database to cover each condition with the same image, and the inclusion of a new condition means I cannot use the original authors materials, as well as if I used varied faces across the conditions I will lose too much power and control, it seems I will be having to make up my own data base. If anyone wishes to use I will be happy to e-mail them when I finish and with how many subjects I photograph for my stimuli. Each image will be rated for normallacy by n=20.

Where to find images of the same faces with and without glasses for experiment?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-12-16)

I am looking to replicate the findings of Leder, forster, and Gerger (2011) in their publication of the glasses stereotype revisited.

I intend to examine the same conditions of no-glasses, rimmed glasses, and rimless glasses, whilst adding an extra condition of sunglasses.

Currently my struggle is finding a facial database that has identical pre-rated images for each condition. I am hoping to avoid taking my own images, as I would then have to score and test them for neutraL facial expressions as well as make sure that I limit the possibility of previous/ future exposure between models and participants, as they will be rated on percieved intelligence, attractiveness, trustworthiness, and success. If anyone is able to point out some possibilities that would be great. I have found somewith either, glasses present vs glasses not present, and some with sunglasses present vs sunglasses not present, but no unified database with identical models for each condition.
