Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The facial feedback hypothesis suggests that facial expressions can influence emotional experiences. For example, forcing a smile can make a person feel happier. However, statement C is false because injecting participants with Botox, which limits facial expressions, has been shown to affect their emotional experience, contrary to the claim that it causes no change in brain activity or emotions. Studies have found that reducing the ability to express emotions through facial expressions can dampen the intensity of those emotions.
