GEDII e-Discussion on Sensor-based data for gender research

Research has revealed gender differences in non-verbal behavior within interactions and conversational styles. Status and gender matter during interactions. Sensor technology and computational approaches are rapidly evolving, potentially allowing for the detection and measurement of these behavioral cues. This online discussion brings together researchers working with sensor-based data in order to discuss current possibilities and challenges for the social sciences in general and gender research in particular.

Online discussion coordinated by Jörg Müller (jmuller@uoc.edu)
