Figures & data

Figure 1. Performance (arcsine Hu scores) on the emotion recognition task in Experiment 1. Data are plotted by stimulus type. Lines through the boxes are the medians, box edges are the 25th and 75th percentiles, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points excluding outliers. The dashed line represents chance (calculated as 1/4 correct, as there were four options of each valence).

Figure 2. Emotion recognition in Experiment 2 (arcsine Hu scores) for posed (dark boxes) and spontaneous (light boxes) emotional expressions. Lines through the boxes are the medians, box edges are the 25th and 75th percentiles, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points excluding outliers. The dashed line represents chance (calculated as 1/4 correct, as there were four options of each valence).
