通过将一个表达式的上半部分（例如愤怒）与另一个表达式的上半部分对齐（例如幸福），来制备复合面部表情。实验1表明，参与者相对于“非合并”对照条件，在这些复合图像中的任何一半识别表达式较慢，其中两个部分被错位。这与面部身份的综合效应相似（A. W. Young，D。Hellawell，＆D。C. Hay，1987年），就像其身份对应物一样，通过反转刺激来破坏效果（实验2）。实验3表明，当顶部和底部包含不同模型的面部构成相同表达式时，没有发现复合效应。这有助于排除复合效应的许多非配合解释（例如，复合材料比非植物更“引起注意”）。最后，实验4证明了身份和表达的综合作用相互独立地运行。
Composite facial expressions were prepared by aligning the top half of one expression (e.g., anger) with the bottom half of another (e.g., happiness). Experiment 1 shows that participants are slower to identify the expression in either half of these composite images relative to a "noncomposite" control condition in which the 2 halves are misaligned. This parallels the composite effect for facial identity (A. W. Young, D. Hellawell, & D. C. Hay, 1987), and like its identity counterpart, the effect is disrupted by inverting the stimuli (Experiment 2). Experiment 3 shows that no composite effect is found when the top and bottom sections contain different models' faces posing the same expression; this serves to exclude many nonconfigural interpretations of the composite effect (e.g., that composites are more "attention-grabbing" than noncomposites). Finally, Experiment 4 demonstrates that the composite effects for identity and expression operate independently of one another.
