感知面部表情的能力随年龄而变化。相对于年轻人(YA),老年人(OA)在识别恐惧,愤怒和悲伤方面不太准确,而在识别厌恶方面更准确。由于面部的不同部位传达不同的情绪,视觉扫描模式的变化可能会导致年龄相关的变化。我们研究了面部表情的扫描模式和识别之间的关系。此外,由于额叶随年龄的变化可能会影响扫描模式和情绪识别,我们研究了扫描参数和执行功能测试性能之间的相关性。我们记录了16名OA(平均年龄68.9岁)和16名YA(平均年龄19.2岁)的眼球运动,同时对面部表情和非面部控制图像(风景)进行分类,并进行执行功能的标准测试。OA在识别恐惧方面的准确性低于YA(p<0.05,r= 0.44),而在识别厌恶方面的准确性更高(p<0.05,r= 0.39)。对于厌恶、恐惧、快乐、中性和悲伤的面孔,OA在上半部分的注视少于YA(p <0.05,r ≥ 0.38),而对于风景则没有组间差异。对于OA,执行功能与悲伤表情的识别以及恐惧,悲伤和惊讶表情的扫描模式相关。我们报告显着的年龄相关的差异,在视觉扫描是特定的面孔。观察到的扫描模式和执行功能之间的关系支持的假设,额叶随年龄的变化可能是情绪识别的一些变化的基础。
The ability to perceive facial emotion varies with age. Relative to younger adults (YA), older adults (OA) are less accurate at identifying fear, anger, and sadness, and more accurate at identifying disgust. Because different emotions are conveyed by different parts of the face, changes in visual scanning patterns may account for age-related variability. We investigated the relation between scanning patterns and recognition of facial emotions. Additionally, as frontal-lobe changes with age may affect scanning patterns and emotion recognition, we examined correlations between scanning parameters and performance on executive function tests. We recorded eye movements from 16 OA (mean age 68.9) and 16 YA (mean age 19.2) while they categorized facial expressions and non-face control images (landscapes), and administered standard tests of executive function. OA were less accurate than YA at identifying fear (p<.05, r=.44) and more accurate at identifying disgust (p<.05, r=.39). OA fixated less than YA on the top half of the face for disgust, fearful, happy, neutral, and sad faces (p’s<.05, r’s≥.38), whereas there was no group difference for landscapes. For OA, executive function was correlated with recognition of sad expressions and with scanning patterns for fearful, sad, and surprised expressions. We report significant age-related differences in visual scanning that are specific to faces. The observed relation between scanning patterns and executive function supports the hypothesis that frontal-lobe changes with age may underlie some changes in emotion recognition.
