Can you spot a fake smile?
Though this was a really cool survey.

18/20, missing 1 and 15. It's all in the eyes! Typically when someone "means" a smile, the entire upper half of the face also gets in on the action. I'm constantly getting picked on for my smile, because I end up grinning hugely with my eyes all squinched up. I can't help it... that's how I telegraph being genuinely happy.

I got 12/20. Go figure! Oh well, I guess I'll just keep letting people fool me into thinking they're happy.

LOL, 14/20. That was fun!
It's definitely all in the eyes. I love the way the corners of peoples eyes crinkle up when they're really smiling :-)

I was just wondering how they got people to "real" smile or "fake" smile.
I didn't do too well, I was always thinking they were faking.

16 out of 20, and like Ustwo, I missed 3 of the first 5. I also had some technical difficulties--on two of them, the video sort of flashed and then thought it had already played.
Yes, the eyes for sure, but the other thing is, a genuine smile doesn't go dead flat at the end like a fake one does. A genuine smile sort of lingers in the lips and jaw muscles. |

I got 12/20 correct. Most of them that I missed were ones that I called fake, but were genuine. I'm a skeptic, I guess.
