In support of the facial feedback hypothesis, participants in one study reported weaker emotional responses to positive and negative video clips than participants in a control condition. What methodology was used to draw this conclusion?
A) Participants were injected with a placebo and told that it would enhance or inhibit their emotional experience.
B) Participants were injected with Botox or Restylane and then asked to view the video clips.
C) Participants completed a scale that asked them to report their level of empathy with others.
D) Participants were asked to try to imagine they were the characters in the video clips.
E) Participants were given mild electrical shock every time a computer registered a facial expression.
Question 2
Research on the facial feedback hypothesis had individuals either enhance or suppress muscle tension in their facial expressions while imagining positive and negative scenarios. The results indicate that:
A) Participants reported similar emotions regardless of whether they enhanced or suppressed their expressions.
B) Participants who were asked to suppress their expressions reported less intense emotions.
C) Participants who were asked to enhance their expressions reported less intense emotions.
D) Participants in the suppressed expression condition reported they were easily able to imagine the scenarios.
E) Participants in the enhanced expression condition reported they had difficulty imagining the scenarios.
