At normal interpersonal distances all features of a face cannot fall within one’s fovea simultaneously. Given that certain facial features are differentially informative of different emotions, does the ability to identify facially expressed emotions...

Recent models of emotion recognition suggest that when people perceive an emotional expression, they partially activate the respective emotion in themselves, providing a basis for the recognition of that emotion. Much of the focus of these models and...
