All the proof I need to know I should have been a Private Detective!

16 out of 20.

I got 8 out of 20. Now where would you put that info in your study? Back page, small print?

I don't have a browser that would open the pics to judge them.
That is always how it works out for me....I guess you could say I am a pessimist. : p
I thought about going ahead and doing it without see the pic.
You know what, I'll see if I can. Kind of the "Blind" test.
If I can I will come back and post my score.

I'm way to trusting...

11/20

BOO!

17/20 I felt like I could often tell before even hitting the play button. And I agree, the eyes were crucial.

16/20

wow!! i got 19/20! i said eyes were most discriminating in telling real from fake smiles.

Longster. You're on a par with me on the smile front...

i got 16/20 although i was quite surprised that alot of those people were able to pull off a genuine smile, didnt appear like they had a great deal to smile about.

someone give me the answers! lol Nah, actually I got 13 of 20. Not bad. That was fun!

17/20. The eyes are sometimes helpful. But I try to get an overall sense of whether or not they are having a good time. Oh, it's hard to explain. But if they are genuinely smiling, they look like they could be laughing.

No wonder I've been sensitive all my life! Maybe it is better to not be so accurate. I can usually tell if people really like me or don't like me. And I end up scurrying away with my wounded pride if I see one of those fake smiles. Sigh...

15/20 I said Eyes. That's what i ended up looking at the most. That was pretty cool thank you for sharing that. :-)

I need more than one guess to reveal what lies behind my smile, if not a response at least a few drinks...

i got 14/20. i think that means that i like to believe that people are, in general, a happy species and that people don't just smile for the sake of it. would i'd rather people not smile than fake it? no. because even your fake smile might make someone's day.

Good game Matt.

Ok, I'd say... faking!

Either that or you just had a minor stroke.

Forgot to say, I got 14/20 and I said I looked at the eyes because that's what everyone says but I think I looked at the mouth more.

Given how quickly the smiles ended and the fact the test was done in very sterile, forced conditions, I wonder how genuine the 'genuine' smiles were.

I mean, if the test was a case of "Ok, fake smile now!" for the false smiles and knock knock jokes to encourage the genuine smiles, maybe the test subjects fake smiled a little during the genuine moments if they didn't find the jokes funny but felt like they should.

Saying that, the boffins probably thought of that and aren't about to be out-foxed in all things science by an arts graduate with very, very limited scientific knowledge.

So... in conclusion, I got 14/20.

16/20.

I'm on to you. I'm on to all of you....
