Facial Affect and Verbal Context in Conversation: Facial Expression as Interjection.
Motley, Michael T.
Human Communication Research, v20 n1 p3-40 Sep 1993
Examines affective facial expression in conversation. Demonstrates that the accuracy of affect-identification for conversational facial expressions generally is no better than chance. Demonstrates that most conversational facial expressions, regardless of true source emotion or the affect signaled in isolation, tend to be interpreted according to the affect associated with the verbal context in which they occur.
