Question

You conduct an emotion-recognition experiment with students from different countries who are attending your university. What would be the results of your experiment?

These students were:

a. not able to accurately recognize emotions.
b. able to recognize emotions provided the emotion stimuli was also shown.
c. able to recognize emotions even without the emotion stimuli being shown.
d. only able to recognize positive emotions but not negative emotions.

Answer 1

The answer is b. able to recognize emotions provided the emotion stimuli was also shown.

Explanation:

If emotions are clearly expressed, the results of my experiment would show that the students are capable of recognizing human or facial expressions regardless of the country they originate from, their society or background; prior to the experiment, their ability to perceive different emotions would have been enhanced as a result of their past experience of various kinds of expressions in their countries or societies.
