Abstract
Recent studies have shown that the facial expressions influence on the judgment of facial impression, that women are better in identifying various displays of facial affect. It is expected that this sex differences in recognition of facial expressions affects the processing of facial impression judgment. Here we compare judged impression and emotion intensity of faces when displaying a positive, neutral, or negative expression. The results suggest that no gender differences in the ability to rate emotional cues in feces. For female, however, the influence of emotional expressions on facial impression judgment is bigger than male.
