[pic] BECOMING A FACIAL DECODER We mentioned previously that some researchers- the psychologist Paul Ekman is the best known- have studied whether facial expression reveal true emotions. These researchers have distinguished real smiles (so called Duchenne smiles‚ named after French physician Guillaume Duchenne) from fake smiles. Duchenne found genuine smile raised not only the corners of the mouth (easily faked) but also cheek and eye muscles (much more difficult to fake)

possible links between facial expressions and emotion? One link is arousal‚ which is the level of activity or preparedness for activity in an organism. Intense contraction of facial muscles‚ such as those used in signifying fear‚ heightens arousal. Self-perception of heightened arousal then leads to heightened emotional activity. Other links may involve changes in brain temperature and the release of neurotransmitters (substances that transmit nerve impulses.) The contraction of facial muscles both influences
