Dimension 347 of 1,100 · Health Lens
Facial Expressivity measures the extent to which an expression conveys visible affect through the face and related nonverbal cues such as smiling, grinning, flushed features, and tense or animated body language. It encompasses both restrained and vivid outward display of emotion.
Minimal Facial Expressivity
Expressions activating this band contain little clear facial or nonverbal emotional display and are often dominated by task behavior, compliance, or general interaction content rather than visible affect.
Low Facial Expressivity
Expressions activating this band include simple, limited nonverbal signaling such as indicating yes or no, mild affection, or subtle physical signs, with emotion shown in a restrained and situational way.
Moderate Facial Expressivity
Expressions activating this band show recognizable but controlled outward affect, including smiling, laughing, appearing flushed, or deliberately managing facial presentation so others see a composed expression.
High Facial Expressivity
Expressions activating this band feature clear, salient facial and mood-related display, such as smiling, cheerfulness, sadness, scowling, or restless visible behavior that makes emotion readily apparent.
Intense Facial Expressivity
Expressions activating this band convey vivid, unmistakable nonverbal emotion through broad smiles, grins, animated eyes and face, or strongly tense body language that makes affect highly visible.
