Searing sentiment or cold calculation? the effects of leader emotional displays on team performance depend on follower epistemic motivation (2009, background): “Second, emotions are communications (Schwarz & Clore, 1983) conveying information about how one feels about things (Ek-man, 1993), about one’s social intentions (Frid-lund, 1994; Van Kleef, De Dreu, & Manstead, 2004a), and about one’s orientation toward other people (Hess, Blairy, & Kleck, 2000).”
The influence of the fear facial expression on prosocial responding (2007, background): “Given prior findings that expressions like fear and sadness may represent affiliative as well as helpless stimuli (Hess et al., 2000; Marsh et al., 2005a), two additional hierarchical regressions were also run, controlling this time for both capability and liking.”
Learning Social Relation Traits from Face Images (2015, background): “attributes, such as age, gender, and expressions, are highly correlated with the high-level factors of social relations, as supported by the psychological studies [9, 11, 13, 18]; 2) leveraging the existing face databases not only improves generalized capacity but also make data preparation much eas”
The Emerging View of Emotion as Social Information (2010, neutral): “For instance, emotional expressions convey information about the expresser's inner feelings (Ekman, 1993), social motives (Fridlund, 1994), and orientation toward other people (Hess, Blairy, & Kleck, 2000; Knutson, 1996).”
Emotional mimicry: why and when we mimic emotions (2014, background): “Smiles and to a lesser extent fearful or sad expressions (Jakobs, Manstead & Fischer, 2001) are generally perceived as more relationship enhancing than frowns or disgusted faces (Hess et al., 2000; Knutson, 1996).”
Emotion is for influence (2011, background): “For instance, emotional expressions convey information about the inner states of the expresser (Ekman, 1993 ), his or her social intentions (Fridlund, 1994 ), and his or her orientation towards other people (Hess, Blairy, & Kleck, 2000 ; Knutson, 1996 ).”
Social messages of crying faces: Their influence on anticipated person perception, emotions and behavioural responses (2006, background): “Following Frijda (1997), Hess et al. (2000), and Knutson (1996), we expected that crying people would be perceived as less dominant and more affiliative than people with angry faces, and that crying expressions would elicit more feelings of sadness than any of the other expressions.”
What emotional reactions can tell us about the nature of others: An appraisal perspective on person perception (2010, background): “Smiling also signals affiliative tendencies, whereas anger does not (Hess et al., 2000; Knutson, 1996), hence, a smiling person may also be perceived as more warm and gentle than one who reacts with anger.”
Understanding the positive and negative effects of emotional expressions in organizations: EASI does it (2014, background): “other people (Hess et al., 2000).”
Effects of direct and averted gaze on the perception of facially communicated emotion. (2005, background): “Likewise, facial expression cues have been found to drive personality trait inferences (Hess, Sylvie, & Kleck, 2000; Knutson, 1996).”
From Facial Expression Recognition to Interpersonal Relation Prediction (2016, background): “Relations are governed by a number of high-level facial factors (Girard 2014; Gottman et al. 2001; Hess et al. 2000).”
Looking at You or Looking Elsewhere: The Influence of Head Orientation on the Signal Value of Emotional Facial Expressions (2007, neutral): “…that sadness and happiness are better recognized when shown by women, whereas anger is better recognized when shown by men, replicates findings by Hess et al. (2000) and fits with the notion that emotions that are closer to the stereotypical expectations for women’s emotionality are better…”
Social attributions from faces: determinants, consequences, accuracy, and functional significance. (2015, background): “Similar findings have been obtained for other global attributes such as attractiveness, which people associate with competence and intelligence (Eagly et al. 1991), and masculinity/femininity, which people associate with dominance (Boothroyd et al. 2007, Buckingham et al. 2006, Oosterhof & Todorov…”
