THE ANALYSIS OF ERRORS IN FACIAL EXPRESSIONS RECOGNITION BASED ON DANVA 2

Summary/Abstract: Recognizing facial expressions for basic emotions such as joy, sadness, fear and anger represents an essential element for successful interpersonal relationships. This four types of human emotions are most frequently used in everyday communication and should be achieved until the age of 10.Without these abilities, the awareness of the right way to behave in social situations would be relatively useless and furthermore, learning how to process more complex types of emotions such as guilt or shame would be very difficult or even impossible. This study aims to highlight a method of analyzing the errors that occur in recognizing facial expressions on the base of an internationally validated instrument that we adapted on a sample of adolescents aged 13 to 18. We consider this a first step in our process of intervention for the optimization of emotional competence and implicitly, of communication and interpersonal relationships.
