Faces Flashcards
Suprise.
Surprise, as shown in figure 11. Note that the horizontal wrinkles are quite subtle in this expression as compared to pictures 1 or 3. Also note that the mouth is only slightly open, as in 9A.
Surprise, as in figure 9A.
Surprise, as in Figure 11. If you called it Fear or Fear-Surprise Blend, that is not a bad error. The mouth in this picture is just on the edge of showing a fear element. Compare the mouth with Figure 16. Is it like the face on the left or right? It is between. The eyes/lids in this piture are very good examples of surprise. The brow/forehead also shows surprise well. Compare picture 4 with picture 11, and note the difference acress the face between this person’s fear and surprise expressions. Also compare Picture 4 with Figure 20F, a fear-surprise blend, to confirm that picture 4 is showing surprise, not a blend of fear and surprise.
Surprise, as in Figure 11. The mouth is only slightly parted as in Figure 9A. There is no sclera showing above or below the iris, but the surprise blueprint is shown in the brow/forehead and lower face.
Surprise, as in Figure 11. No sclera shows above or below the iris in this face because the eyes are deeply set. The surprise blueprint is shown well in the brow/forehead and in the lower face.
Surprise, as in Figure 9. If you called this picture Fear, it was probably because this person’s eyebrows are less arched. They are more straightened than is usual in the surprise expression. Note that it is a surprise brow/forehead: There is no drawing together of the eyebrows; there are no vertical wrinkles between the eyesbrows; and the horizontal wrinkles are not short, but run across the entire brow.
Questioning surprise, as in figure 10A. Surprise is shown in the brows/forehead and eye/lids, with no involvement of the lower face. Compare with Picture 3.
Fear, showing elements of Figure 18A (lower face) and figure 22A (brow/forehead). The brow/forehead is drawn together but not raised as it should be in fear.
Slight Fear, as in figure 18A. The lower face shows just the beginning trace of stretching of the lips. The brow/forehead shows a slight sign of raising of the brow but no sign of drawing together. The strongest fear element is the tension in the eyeslids.
Disgust-Contempt - - both answers are correct. This picture shows nose-wrinkling and narrowing of eyes as is evident in Figure24B and lips as in Figure 25C.
DIsgust as in Figure 23B.
Disgust, as in Figure 24A. If you called this Disgust-Anger Blend, that could be considered a correct answer also, because the brows/forehead are a bit ambiguous. The wrinkling between the brows and this amount of lowering could suffest the presence of anger. The disgust is strongly registered in the lower face and lower eyelids.
Disgust, as in Figure 24A.
Digust-Contempt, as in Figure 25C. Both answers are correct.
Contempt, as in Figure 25A. Compare with Pictures 32 and 49.
Disgust, as in Figure 24B. If you called this Anger ,it is probably because of the static signal system. This person has eyebrows set low in his forehead. Check his neutral expression, shown in Picture 52.
Contempt, as in Figure 25A. If you called it anger or Anger-Contempt Blend, check the answer for PIcture 21.
Slight Anger, as in Figure 36B. The clues to anger are subtle and most easily seen by comparing this anger expression with this person’s neutral expression, as shown in Picture 53. In anger the brow is slightly lower and slightly drawn together. The lips are slightly tensed. The most obvious signal is in the staring eyes and tensed lower eyelids.
Anger, as in Figure 42B. The anger mouth may involve anyone of a number of variations on a square shape. Compare this mouth with the mouth in Pictures 25-27 and Figure 34.
Anger, as in Figure 42B. See the commentary on Picture 24.
Anger, as in Figure 42A.
Anger, combining elements of Figure 36B (brow/forehead) and 42B (eyes and lower face). The brows are down, but not drawn close together; the mouth shows the clenched-teeth variation on the open-mouth anger. See the commentary on Picture 24.
Anger. This particular combination of elements was not shown in a figure. The brows/forehead, upper eyelid, and staring appearance to the eye are similar to the photographs in Figure 37. The lower eyelid is not tensed and raised. The mouth position is somewhat like Figure 34A and 34B, but less intense. It is more like the mouth position shown in Figure 57A.
Anger, as in figure 36B. If you missed it, you probably called it Fear, failing to distinguish the piercing look of anger from that of fear; compare with picture 9. In Picture 29 the brows are down (but not drawn together); the lower eyelid is tensed, and the upper lip is pressed slightly down against the lower lip.
Happiness, as in Figure 50B.
Happiness ,as in Figure 50B.
Slight Happiness, as in Figure 45A. If you called this Contempt, compare Picture 32 with Pictures 20 and 49.
Happiness, as in Figure 50A.
Happiness, as in Figure 50B. If you called it Surprise Blend, it was probably because of the shape of the lips in this picture. To see that it does not involve surprise in the lower face, compare this picture with Figure 46.
Happiness as in Figures 43B and 44B.
Happiness, as in Figure 50B.
Sadness, as in Figure 54A. Note the gaze down, the corners of the lips down, the slight raising and drawing together of the inner corners of the eyebrows.
Sadness, as in Figure 54. A good example of the drawing together and raising of the inner corners of the eyebrows.
Slight Sadness, as in Figures 51A and 52A. Don’t be concerned, if you were wrong on this picture. Congratulate yourself if you were right. The clues are very subtle. There is the slight trace of the sadness brow, giving a slight triangulation to the upper eyelid. The lower lip may be also beginning to show a trace of sadness, but it is not certain.
Sadness, as in Figure 52. Note the drawn-together and slightly raised inner corners of the eyebrow, and the resultant triangulation of the upper eyelid. The gaze is also down. Although the corners of the lips appear down, checking this person’s neutral expression (Picture 54) shows that this is the shape of this person’s lips.
Sadness, but more subtly shown than in any of the figures. How do you know that this person looks sad? Where is the clue? Cover the eyes and forehead with your hand; does the mouth area look sad? NO. Cover the lower face with your hand, and you will see that the clue to sadness is in the eyes/lids and brow/forehead. There has been a slight raising of the cheeks, producing a very slight raising of the lower eyelid. The inner corners of the eyebrows have been slightly raised and drawn up, but that is not apparent from the appearance of the eyebrows on this person; it is apparent in the shape of the skin below the eyebrow. NOte how it has been trangulated just as in Figure 51A.
Sadness, as in Figure 54B. The mouth shows a very slight hint of sadness.
Sadness, as in Figure 54. Even though the lips are slightly parted, sadness is still registered in the downed corners.
Sadness, as in Figure 52. This picture shows that on some people the drawing together and raising muscular action doesn’t change the brows; but you can see the pull fo the muscles themselves in bunching under the skin in the forehead. Also note the triangulation of the skin under the brow. Also note the wrinkle pattern in the forehead, which occurs with some people, when the sadness brow is shown. This wrinkle pattern looks like the Greed letter Omega, and has been called the Omega pattern.
Happiness-Surprise Blend, as in Figure 46A.
Happiness-Surprise Blend, as in Figure 46A.
Fear-Surprise Blend, as in Figure 20E. Compare this picture with the fear expression of this person shown in PIcture 14. The suprise element in the blend in PIcture 47 is the brow/forehead. PIcture 47 has the fear mouth shown in Figure 15A, while PIcture 14 has the fear mouth shown in Figure 15B.
Fear-Surprise Blend, as in Figure 20F. The fear element is in the lower face (Figure 15A), with surprise in the brows/forehead and eyes/lids. The fact that the eyes are open very wide, which could happen in surprise, also melds eaily into a fearful expression.
Happiness-Contempt Blend, as in Figure 47C. Compare this picture with this same person’s slight happiness expression (Picture 32), and contempt expression (Picture 20). The mouth position is the same in contempt and happiness-contempt. The happiness is registered in this blend expression by the lifting of the cheek and the consequent slight narrowing of the eye.
Anger-Disgust BLend, as in Figure 39A. Compare this with Picture 23, in which this person shows anger without disgust (compare the lower face in the two pictures).
Sadness-Fear Blend. This type of blend was not shown earlier. It is composed of sadness, registered in the brow/forehead and eyes/lids (Figure 60), and fear in the lower face (Figure 15A). The slight raise in the upper lip may give some hint of contempt. Figure 55 showed another type of fear-sadness blend, in, which the fear was registered in the lower face with the more spread fear mouth (Figure 15B).
