    Happiness, sadness, surprise, fear, anger, and disgust are considered primary affects that produce characteristic facial expressions through the contraction and relaxation of facial muscles. Each primary affect involves distinct positioning of the eyebrows, eyes, and mouth. Disgust is unique in also involving wrinkling of the nose. Emotional blends combine the facial codes of multiple emotions, often displaying one emotion in the upper face and another in the lower face. People are able to mask emotions by interrupting or "short-circuiting" the formation of facial expressions through other signals or composing fake expressions, although the true emotion may flash on the face initially.

    In this activity you will learn about the role of facial expressions in the nonverbal communication of emotion. Primary Affects What emotions are generally considered primary affects? How do they relate to facial expressions? Happiness, sadness, surprise, fear, anger, and disgust are all primary affects. When
    an emotion is experienced, a neural program sends messages to the face, causing certain muscles to contract and others to relax. These movements produce a characteristic facial expression lasting anywhere from a fraction of a second to several seconds.

    The Facial Code Using the table below, describe the characteristic positions of the eyebrows, eyes, and mouth for each of the six primary affects.

    Emotional Blends What are emotional blends? How do people generally express them?
    An emotional blend is a combination of the facial codes associated with the experienced emotions. If the codes specify conicting positions for the eyebrows and lips, usually people display one emotion in the upper region of the face and the other in the lower.

    Masking Emotion How are people able to mask emotions?


    Depending on the number of facial muscles involved in the facial expression and the complexity of their movements, it may take a second or more for the facial expression to be fully formed. This means that other signals could interrupt or short-circuit the facial expression, allowing some individuals to compose themselves and show a poker face even in the midst of powerful emotional experiences. Older children and adults have also learned how to put on false facial expressions in social settings, such as an insincere smile when the individual doesnt genuinely feel happy. However, the true emotion is often displayed on the face for an instant before the masking expression is composed.
