From Health Day:
The investigators also found that people display positive emotions with a so-called
Duchenne smile, which involves simultaneous movement of two facial muscles around
the eyes and cheeks and primarily occurs when people are sincere and happy. Others
see this type of smile as sincere and it helps with social bonding. People are highly
aware of this type of smile and are good at "reading" a fake smile," according to
study leader Belinda Campos of the University of California, Irvine.
