在这项研究中，研究人员从快乐面孔的加工模式和空间特征两方面考察了快乐面孔优势的起源。在实验1和实验2中，选取与中性面孔偏差相等的快乐和悲伤图式脸作为刺激，并要求被试对这两种面部表情进行分类。实验1表明，只有当快乐的脸以直立的姿势呈现时，人们才能比悲伤的脸更快地识别出来；相反，当刺激以倒立的姿势呈现时，人们观察到悲伤的脸的优势很小。实验2的结果表明，快乐面孔的识别模式在左右视野中存在差异，在右视野中呈现快乐面孔时，反转的影响比在左视野中呈现快乐面孔时更为明显。从这些结果中，我们可以假设，虽然快乐的脸很可能被整体识别，但悲伤的脸很可能被分析模式识别。这一假设并未被实验3的数据所否定，实验3使用真实面孔上不受控制的快乐和悲伤表情作为刺激。
In this study, the origin of the happy face advantage was examined with respect to the mode of processing, as well as the spatial characteristics, of happy faces. In Experiments 1 and 2, happy and sad schematic faces of equal form deviations from a neutral face were adopted as stimuli, and the task of categorizing these two facial expressions was given to the subjects. Experiment 1 demonstrated that happy faces were recognized faster than sad faces only when they were presented as in an upright position: conversely the sad face advantage was observed to be slight when the stimuli were presented as inverted. The results of Experiment 2 showed that the pattern of recognition for happy faces differed in the right and left visual fields: the affect of inversion was much more pronounced when the happy faces were presented in the right visual field than when they were presented in the left visual field. From these results, it was assumed that while happy faces were likely to be recognized holistically, sad faces were likely to be recognized by analytic mode. This assumption was not rejected by the data from Experiment 3 where the uncontrolled happy and sad expressions on real faces were used as stimuli.
