Look at the eyes ... if they don't smile, then chances are the smile is fake.

I got 13 also. Some were blatantly obvious, others were quite tricky I found because it's hard to establish a genuine smile when you've only got the one smile to judge it on. For me I found that the eyes tend to give it away most of the time, but as stated before it is tricky to spot 100% of the time.

Still, 13 out of 20 - 65% accuracy. Not bad eh? :p

That Chinese-looking lady has a dang good fake smile. I thought it was real. And that bloke with a goatee near the end has a real smile that looks fake.

I won't say anymore because I realise that people can look at these comments and cheat. :p

Or how we read the smiles of people from other ethnic groups ... :rollseyes

What do you think? Are smile totally universal across the world?

[guyabano]

I do myself pretty hard on asian-type smiles. My wife is from the Philippines, and for me, they all look the same and when they smile, hmmm, I never know

Look at the labels below each image to see which smiles are genuine and which are fake.

Ticks and crosses show which smiles you got right and wrong.

what a crap test!

In real life its much easier to differentiate genuine from fake..thats wht i believe.

This software is all based on our guesswork, not on our ability to identify right.

I think seeing the otenticity of someone's smile is useful. We can see if he/she is lying or not when commenting things with only the facial expression, in this case smile. Jazak Allah khayr, insha Allah we receive the halal benefits.

Most people are surprisingly bad at spotting fake smiles. One possible explanation for this is that it may be easier for people to get along if they don't always know what others are really feeling.
Although fake smiles often look very similar to genuine smiles, they are actually slightly different, because they are brought about by different muscles, which are controlled by different parts of the brain.


Fake smiles can be performed at will, because the brain signals that create them come from the conscious part of the brain and prompt the zygomaticus major muscles in the cheeks to contract. These are the muscles that pull the corners of the mouth outwards.


Genuine smiles, on the other hand, are generated by the unconscious brain, so are automatic. When people feel pleasure, signals pass through the part of the brain that processes emotion. As well as making the mouth muscles move, the muscles that raise the cheeks – the orbicularis oculi and the pars orbitalis – also contract, making the eyes crease up, and the eyebrows dip slightly.
Lines around the eyes do sometimes appear in intense fake smiles, and the cheeks may bunch up, making it look as if the eyes are contracting and the smile is genuine. But there are a few key signs that distinguish these smiles from real ones. For example, when a smile is genuine, the eye cover fold - the fleshy part of the eye between the eyebrow and the eyelid - moves downwards and the end of the eyebrows dip slightly.


Scientists distinguish between genuine and fake smiles by using a coding system called the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), which was devised by Professor Paul Ekman of the University of California and Dr Wallace V. Friesen of the University of Kentucky.

would have had 18 but I chose fake(when I felt the answer was genuine) on a guy who looks like a dude I do not like..........;D

[Muhaba]

I always give people fake smiles. Many times I meet someone and shake hands, I give them a nice big smile, even when I'm feeling sad internally. A smile can go a long way to make a person feel good so one should smile whenever greeting / meeting someone else. There is even a hadith that says that the smile is a sadaqa. it's a very beautiful hadith. :)

oh by the way, I got 10 out of 20 correct on that test.

[BeTheChange]

^^ Same as me sister. We have the same score.

Also smiling uses more muscles than a frown and it's contagious :D <<< this one is a little too cheesy though.
