What the Face Reveals: Basic and Applied Studies of Spontaneous Expression Using the Facial Action Coding System (FACS) (Series in Affective Science) - Brossura
Sinossi
Paul Ekman and Erika Rosenberg present the state-of-the-art in the study of facial expression, addressing key topics and questions, such as the dynamic and morphological differences between voluntary and involuntary expressions, the relationship between what people show on their faces and what they say they feel, whether it is possible to use facial behavior to draw distinctions in psychiatric populations, and how far research on automating facial measurement has progressed. Ekman also provides follow-up commentary on all of the original research presented, as well as a concluding integration and critique of all the contributions.
"What the Face Reveals is a superb collection of chapters, providing major updates to this classic Volume. It provides the 'best and the brightest' research currently being conducted on the complexities and meanings of psychological information revealed by the face. The volume is essential reading for all researches in the area, and fascinating and informative to all psychological researchers."
---David M. Buss, Professor of Psychology, University of Texas at Austin, and author of Evolutionary Psychology: The New Science of the Mind
"Ekman Facial Action Coding System (FACS) is a methodological tour the force---one of the most precise behavioral coding systems yet devised in the behavioral sciences. This volume extends Ekman's extraordinary methodological contribution, compiling some of the best applications of the FACS method in social, development, personality, and applied psychology. The articles are intrinsically interesting and show the reader how to apply FACS to address major questions in the field of emotion. The author commentaries are useful, informative, and succinct. This book is both a highly useful refere4nce resource and compilation of important articles an fascinating issues."
---Joseph J. Campos, Professor of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley
"People's faces provide unique windows on their emotional and social lives, and this inspiring volume provides multiple views through those windows. This book is essential reading for students of emotion who are curious about whether investing the effort to unpack facial action using FACS or related techniques pays off. To see that faces can reveal deception, psychopathology, suicidal ideation, drug carving, and even coronary heart disease underscores that the payoff for studying the face in this way is indeed large."
---Barbara L. Fredrickson, Associate Professor of Psychology and Faculty Associate at the Research Center for Groups Dynamics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
"What the Face Reveals dramatically illustrates the value of precise measurement of facial behavior in illuminating an impressive range of issues in basic and applied research. The chapters present innovative state-of-the-art applications of facial measurement, and the commentaries by authors and editors greatly enrich the readers experience. This is affective science of the highest quality, brimming with intriguing findings and promising new directions." --Robert W. Levenson, Professor of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley and Director of the Institute of Personality and Social Research and the Berkeley Psychophysiology Laboratory
