Chapter 5: Emotional Expressions of Face, Posture, and Voice Flashcards
Basic/Discrete Model and Emotional Expression
though humans may fake or learn otherwise, there is an automatic expression of emotions that is inherently universal
Component Processing Model and emotion
nature’s code for emotional expression is based on more specific aspects of emotional appraisal
Psychological Construction Theories
expressions communicate the valence of emotion across cultures, but other aspects are more likely to be learned socially and vary from person to person
Darwin?
He’s on the beagle, and asked people to confirm different emotional expressions
Tomkins’s Plan in the 60s
get Ekman and Izard to do experiments to test whether prototypical expressions are understood/made by other cultures; yes they areee
Russell’s Criticism of Ekman’s Study
could’ve used process of elimination; used very staged/strong displays of emotion that aren’t visible every day; expressions weren’t realistic (not looking to the side, body still, etc)
Free Labelling
showing a picture of an emotion and letting the patient label it without a word bank
Display Rules
what is allowed to be expressed outwardly as deemed appropriate by a culture or situation
Matsumoto
victory picture guy! collectivist cultures tended to mask their expressions, though their initial reactions to loss/win were the same, within a few miliseconds
Duchenne Smile
typical “happy” expression, teeth out, grinning, eyes crinkling at the sides
Campo’s Study
produce “x” emotion; the participants reliably did so!
Facial Feedback Hypothesis
facial expressions help create the sense of the emotion that they’re expressing; inability to mimix expressions seems to effect one’s perception of their own emotions
Conceptual Replication
figure out the same theoretical principle of a study without following the exact procedures of another
Direct Replication
does exactly what another study did to replicate results
Emotional Labour
used in display rules, and can be stressful; mainly based on the idea of flight attendants (stewardesses)
