Social Perception is the process by which humans make decisions about social relationships. Theperception of attractiveness, warmth, competence and many other social factors occur in almost allsocial interactions. People we meet are constantly making decisions based on their perception of whatwe do, how we move and look.Previous studies on factors that influence social perceptions made about attractiveness, warmth andcompetence have heavily relied on using static cues as stimuli, like pictures. However, in actual socialsettings, perception does not occur based on static stimuli, instead social perception strongly relies ondynamic cues like walking and dancing.This inter-disciplinary research aims to study the role of dynamic cues like walking and dancing asopposed static cues like pictures, on the social perception of attractiveness, warmth and competence.The research will use motion-capture technology to capture the movements of walking and dancing fromparticipants, which will be used as the stimuli for raters who will rate the stimuli on attractiveness,warmth and competence.Walking is chosen to be studied as it is the most common dynamic factors that are present in socialsituations that affect social perception. Dancing offers a further paradox. While sexual dimorphism isgenerally attractive in terms of the face, voice, etc., traditionally feminine qualities such as grace andfinesse are emphasized in dance. This project will test whether sexual dimorphism is associated withattractiveness in dancing, unlike other dynamic or static cues; hence whether dance blurs thedistinctions between masculinity and femininity.

社会感知是人类对社会关系做出决定的过程。对吸引力、温暖、能力和许多其他社会因素的感知发生在几乎所有的社会互动中。我们遇到的人不断地根据他们对我们的行为、行动和外表的看法做出决定。之前对影响吸引力、温暖度和能力等社会认知的因素的研究在很大程度上依赖于使用静态线索作为刺激，比如图片。然而，在实际的社交环境中，感知并不是基于静态刺激而发生，而是社会感知强烈依赖于步行和跳舞等动态线索。这项跨学科研究旨在研究步行和跳舞等动态线索相对于图片等静态线索的作用，该研究将利用动作捕捉技术来捕捉参与者的行走和跳舞动作，并将其用作评分者对刺激进行评分的刺激选择步行作为研究对象，因为它是社会情境中影响社会感知的最常见的动态因素。舞蹈提供了进一步的悖论。虽然性别二态性通常在面孔、声音等方面具有吸引力，但舞蹈中强调传统的女性品质，例如优雅和技巧。该项目将测试性别二态性是否与舞蹈中的吸引力相关，这与其他动态或静态线索不同；因此，舞蹈是否模糊了男性气质和女性气质之间的区别。
