Task 4 Emotion faces + tears (Tears ereader --> whats the use / value…

- - - - 96 females
      - within subject
        --> each saw both crying and tear removed
      - 20 pictures (half crying the others no)
        -----> each picture displayed 3 times, means of ratings taken
        ---> each rated on helplessness, friendliness, connectedness, willingness to help
  - - - 128 males
        68 females
      - between subjects
        --> half saw crying face, half didn't!
        --> random allocation
      - same pictures as study 1
- - - - Botox in corrugator
        --> 50-60% remission in MDD patients
        --> reduced hyperactivity of amygdala after Botox in response to angry faces + negative stimuli
        --> reversal of Botox injection = restored amygdala hyperactivity !
- - - - --> prosocial = linked with higher sensitivity to fearful expression (3 studies about that)
      - facial feedback hypothesis
        ----> tensness in facial muscles = feedbacks to cortex which interprets it as emotions and vice versa :D!!
        ---> facial mimicry = elicits emotion, frown muscle = and negative + angry stimuli etc #, smile = reward centers increase
        ---> fear facial expression = strongest mediator (also 3 studies about how sensitivity to fearful facial expression = mediates prosocial behavior (the more sensitive = more prosocial)
        --> inhibited by botox in corrugator muscle eg. :D!!
    - - ---> different from empathy !!!
        -----> cause empathy is more like you cognitively think about emotions whereas secondary emotion are instinctively :P ?? don't agree :p !!
      - affect as information theory
        ---> when they believe that what they perceived / who they perceived = elicited the emotion they are feeling (like pain as when others step o lego brick) they rely on that emotion to make judgements how the person who stepped on brick is feeling haha
        ----> mirror neurons
        --> implicated in motor movements, facial expression, felt emotions (here they focus on pain meh)
      - how much we can relate to the situation we see other person in, the better we are at feeling good what it must felt like
