Krishna, Anand; Rodrigues, Johannes; Mitschke, Vanessa; Eder, Andreas B. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Facial masks have become and may remain ubiquitous. Though important for preventing infection, they may also serve as a reminder of the risks of disease. Thus, they may either act as cues for threat, priming avoidance-related behavior, or as cues for a safe interaction, priming social approach. To distinguish between these possibilities, we…
