About

Kerem Alp Usal is a researcher focused on the intersection of human behavior and technology, with key contributions to understanding gaze dynamics in conversational settings. His most cited work, "Gaze aversion in conversational settings: An investigation based on mock job interview" (2021, 11 citations), addresses methodological challenges in assessing gaze-to-face contact during dyadic interactions. By conducting the experiment twice with different participant groups, Usal provided robust empirical evidence on how gaze aversion functions in high-stakes contexts like job interviews. This work has implications for social robotics, human-computer interaction, and communication studies, offering insights into non-verbal cues that shape interpersonal dynamics. Usal’s research demonstrates a commitment to rigorous experimental design and real-world applicability, making his findings valuable for students and researchers exploring social signal processing. His contributions highlight the subtle yet critical role of gaze in human communication, paving the way for more naturalistic human-machine interfaces.
