The study aimed at evaluating of the role of communication channels in recognition of facial and vocal expression of emotions. It was based on ABAKUS experiment, which is the modification of Davitz's search paradigm (1964). The results confirmed the assumption of additivity of visual an acoustic channels. The subjects (N=90) recognized emotions quicker and with greater accuracy when they were presented in the visuo-acoustic than in the acoustic channel. Moreover the dynamic form of presentation (film) resulted in the higher rates of recognition than the static one (photographs). Recognizing emotions from vocal expression turned out to be the most difficult. The most common errors made by the subjects were confusion of fear and sadness in acoustic channel and fear and anger in visual channel.

The study focuses on differences between women and men in recognizing negative emotions from facial expressions and the conformity of women and men while labelling the emotions. Previous research has indicated that women conform more than men when the stimuli used are more comprehensible for men. This research seeks to establish whether this phenomenon can be observed when the stimuli are more comprehensible to women. In this study, 24 women and 25 men labelled the facial expressions of negative emotions, first in private and subsequently in a group with four confederates. In private, women were more successful than men in recognizing facial expressions. However, no differences were observed between women and men in respect to conformity while being in a group. The results show that the displaying of emotions is a gender specific stimulus that does not affect conformity.

This research examined children’s understanding of the effect of hiding or pretending an emotion on the beliefs of the observer of this emotion. A sample of 337 children from 4 to 12 years of age participated in the study. They were divided into two groups; one involving a deception condition and one a pretend play condition. In the deception tasks, the protagonists intended to deceive other people about their feelings, while in the pretend play tasks, the protagonists pretended an emotion to play with another person. The results support previous findings that 4- and even 6-year-olds have difficulty in understanding the misleading consequences of hiding an emotion. On the other hand, when children attributed beliefs to the observer of a pretend emotion, young children mostly considered the pretend scenario, while older children took the real events into account. The paper discusses when children develop their ability to understand simulated emotions and their possible misleading consequences.
