这项研究探讨了男性和女性在面对面部表情时面部肌肉反应性是否存在差异。这项研究还研究了刺激脸部的性别是否会对面部刺激的反应模式产生不同的影响。因此，性行为在2倍的时间内被操纵。2析因设计，让男性和女性观看男女都表现出的愤怒和快乐的幻灯片。从皱眉肌和颧肌区域测量面部肌电(EMG)活动。受试者还被要求在不同的维度上对刺激进行评级。结果表明，愤怒的面孔会引起皱眉肌活动增加，而快乐的面孔会引起颧骨活动的增加。正如预测的那样，这些影响对女性更明显，特别是对快乐面孔的反应。有趣的是，刺激的性别对面部肌电没有影响。进一步发现，男性和女性对刺激的感知是相似的。这一结果与之前的研究结果一致，即女性的面部反应比男性更强烈。
This study explored whether males and females differ in facial muscle reactivity when exposed to facial expressions. The study also examined whether the sex of the stimulus faces differentially influences the response patterns to facial stimuli. Thus, the sex was manipulated in a 2 .times. 2 factorial design by exposing males and females to slides of angry and happy faces displayed by both sexes. Facial electromyographic (EMG) activity was measured from the corrugator and zygomatic muscle regions. The subjects were also required to rate the stimuli on different dimensions. The results showed that angry faces evoked increased corrugator activity whereas happy faces evoked increased zygomatic activity. As predicted, these effects were more pronounced for females, particularly for the response to happy faces. Interestingly, there were no facial EMG effects for gender of stimulus. It was further found that males and females perceived the stimuli similarly. The results are consistent with previous findings indicating that females are more facially reactive than are males.
