With technology at the fingertips of billions of people around the world, organizations have truly global in the last decade. Organizations are able to manage and control communications with various clients and vendors on any part of the world. But, it also meant that users from far away corners of the world could access any resource on the internet. Protection of an organization’s assets, infrastructure, data and technology are of paramount importance. In fact it is the most important aspect. The papers convey that message. Irrespective of innovation and analytics being used of an organization, if it doesn’t stress importance on security, it will be vulnerable to attacks from malicious third party hackers with hurtful intent that will cause huge losses to profits and credibility. The papers talk about governmental involvement in cyber security laws like the one by Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that made it mandatory for even small scale organizations to protect customer data or pay the price. The papers talk about need for maintaining a culture of speedy response time and prioritizing security.

Cyber security and risk management go hand in hand. It is important to build, implement, maintain, and follow security protocols across the organization upgrading it regularly to be up to date with the latest advancements and schedule checks to ward off threats. But, in spite of its best efforts, the organization’s systems may be compromised. The risk management efforts that the organization worked on come into effect. A dedicated team of specialists must start working on the root cause of the issue and ensure data safety. Encrypt all data to make it unreadable to external entities. That will ensure continued protection. Mock attacks to identify loopholes and resolving them as soon as possible makes the organization stronger in dealing with from future attacks of the same kind. Building security firewalls and ensuring fast response when the firewalls are breached would ensure minimizing losses and maximizing security.

As an IT manager, I would implement all the steps mentioned above. I would have a dedicated team of professionals with the sole purpose of ensuring protection. Similarly, I would always stress the need for a response time who would be most active during the times of attacks. I would check on the results of regular system checks to ensure everything is fine. I would ensure that communication with external resources is highly encrypted. I would investigate and hold meetings about latest advancements and ways to implement them for our architecture and implement them as soon as possible.

Gender Perception Research paper

/in /by

Gender Perception from

https://opl.apa.org/

Introduction

Which facial features lead to classification of a face as male or female? As you can imagine, the answer is not a simple one. Research by Campbell, Benson, Wallace, Doesbergh, and Coleman (1999) found the eye and brow ridge to be particularly influential when viewing a face straight on; specifically, the vertical distance between the eye and the brow affect the gender classification of pictures of faces directly facing the camera. Other research (Farkas, 1988; Thornhill & Moller, 1997) confirms the importance of the brow region explaining that a broad jaw and prominent brow ridge indicate testosterone exposure and thus is associated with male classification. Other research (Takemasa, Yasuki, Ryosuke, Shigeru & Shinichi, 2014) challenges that simplifying gender perception to individual facial features fails to account for the holistic nature of processing gender perception when looking at one’s face.

Children and adults often report that they base their judgments of gender on features such as hair length or clothing. However, hair length can be long or short on a man or a woman, and men and women do wear similar types of clothing. Despite the potential for confusion, people reliably categorize individuals in the absence of information about hair or clothing. This study explores the role of facial features in cueing gender classification.

In this study, participants view photographs of faces (hair and neck covered) presented in three conditions: 1) full view – the full face is visible, 2) eyes only – only the eye and brow region are visible, 3) mouth only – only the mouth and chin regions are visible. Participants are asked to identify the gender of each stimulus and to indicate their confidence in their judgment.

Design

There are two independent variables: facial cues (with three levels: full face, eyes only, mouth only) and gender (with two levels: male faces, female faces). This design produces the six different conditions defined by this 3 x 2 within-subject factorial design; 8 male and 8 female models appear with the full-face view, eyes-only view, and mouth-only view.

Participants identify whether the face is male or female and rate their confidence in this evaluation. Thus, the dependent variables are: 1) accuracy in identification of gender of faces, and 2) confidence in the accuracy of responses.

Data Download, Format & Analyses

New column included in data reports!

There is a Profile ID included in new data reports. This is specific to each user. The User ID shown in old reports is now called Experiment Results ID. If a user takes an experiment multiple times, the Experiment Results ID will be different each time but the Profile ID will be consistent. To access the original data formats with User ID, use the OLD DATA files. The image below is not an exact representation of the XLS download. For more information, see our FAQs.

The data file includes the following variables for each participant, in this order: Profile ID, Experiment Results ID, Class ID; gender, age, hand preference, date of data collection, number of correctly classified faces followed by associated confidence rating for photos of female ‘eyes,’ female ‘mouth,’ female ‘full face,’ male ‘eyes,’ male ‘mouth,’ and male ‘full face.’ An excerpt of the data is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1

Applications/Extensions

In this experiment, gender is treated as a dichotomous (either/or) variable: face gender (IV) is defined as either male or female, and face perception (DV) is measured as ‘male’ or ‘female.’ In many cultures, species and situations, gender often functions this way. For instance, when asked to check a box ‘M’ for male or ‘F’ for female on an application form, most people answer effortlessly. However, gender can be experienced, conceptualized, and operationally defined as consisting of more than two categories (e.g. male, female, intersexed) or as varying along one or more continuous dimensions (e.g. masculinity, femininity, androgyny). Because gender powerfully shapes people’s feelings about themselves and others and their roles in society, careful consideration of the possible meanings of gender and implications for its scientific study is warranted.

An additional issue relevant here concerns how faces differ other than gender. Other variables such as attractiveness (Wells, Baguley, Sergeant & Dunn, 2013), age (Mouchetant-Rostaing & Giard, 2003), ethnicity (Armann & Bülthoff, 2012), and facial expression (Chengwei, Ying, Zahida, Wenhui, Bo & Zhongqing, 2017) influence face perception and could influence how easily or confidently faces are categorized as male or female. Thus, controlling for variables such as these may affect the outcome of studies of gender perception.
