Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: "The present study examined the cognitive evaluation of facial expressions. The amounts of time takenby 32 participants (from the general population) to find the different face in a set of photos where 31faces were the same and only one was different, were analysed. The variations of the faces were dueto identity and/or facial expressions (happiness, anger, neutral or combinations of these). The resultsshowed that the happiness expression was detected the fastest and that the processing of this expressionwas made in a gestaltic way. They also showed that the recognition of the facial identity and therecognition of the expression were carried out by independent ways of processing."
