This week's resource is a fantastic website that allows you to generate average faces, transform faces, make a baby from photos of two parents and more. You can upload your own photos to transform, which you can use for psychology coursework. I have confirmation that you are free to use generated images for educational purposes, such as coursework.

They also plan to expand the site early next year to include a feature for students where you can generate your own images and create an experiment that runs on the website and download the data.

Beware, this website is very addictive!
