Bands

Minimal Interpersonal Coldness

Expressions activating this band show little coherent interpersonal coldness and often contain unrelated material or ordinary social and emotional content. When the proxy appears, it is only as a faint trace of reduced concern, harshness, or unchecked social behavior.

Low Interpersonal Coldness

Expressions activating this band convey emotional reserve, suspicion, or social withdrawal, with occasional dismissive or callous attitudes toward others. The stance is detached and self-protective rather than openly harsh.

Moderate Interpersonal Coldness

Expressions activating this band show a mixed interpersonal style in which warmth or sensitivity is present in some expressions, while others express blunt dislike, low concern for others, or willingness to use people instrumentally. Coldness appears as selective empathy alongside clear capacity for detachment.

High Interpersonal Coldness

Expressions activating this band depict a consistently distant and unsentimental interpersonal stance marked by keeping others away, indifference to their feelings, selfishness, and cutting hostility. The tone is hard, inaccessible, and notably lacking in warmth.

Severe Interpersonal Coldness

Expressions activating this band convey an intensely icy, clinical, and ruthless way of relating to others. Emotional disconnection is pronounced and accompanied by overt hardness, hatred, or coldly instrumental treatment of people.
