People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions. A new report explains why. Jack and his colleagues from University of Glasgow discovered that rather than scanning evenly across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. Jack said, "Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect the mouth."
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. "The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions," Jack said. "Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less."
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.
Which of the following about the study is not correct?
选项
A、The whole study lasted for two hours.
B、There are 26 participants in the study.
C、Participants’ eye movements were recorded.
D、Participants were asked to categorize the pictures of facial expressions.
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据第三段的描述可知,这项研究的参与人数是26人,主要内容是让他们观察图片,并且按照不同类型对图片进行分类,目的是通过记录参与者的眼球运动来研究西方人和东方人识别面部表情的文化差异问题。B、C、D项均表述正确。A项整项研究持续的时间在文中没有提到,故本题选A。
