Three groups of male and female undergraduates were shown slides of babies' faces wearing smiling, neutral, or “other” facial expressions in a recognition memory task. Facial expressions of the memory “target” babies were systematically varied across groups. Group error rates for women were significantly lower than those for men on smiling faces only: there were no sex differences in recognition of neutral and “other” expressions. Arguments are presented for a biological rather than social learning interpretation. |
