Spot The Fake Smile -- Quiz

I’d be curious to know your score and (based on some informal sampling anomalies I’ve noted) whether you’re male or female.

Male-16/20

15/20, male

12/20, male.

Male 17/20

I believe it’s hard to “turn off” a genuine smile. It lingers in the eyes even after the face returns to neutral.

Male 13/20

Most of my errors were marking fakes as genuines. I can’t tell the fakers. Probably why I tend to get along with everyone.

Male 12/20. All of my misses were in the first 9. Dunno if practice made it easier, got the hang of the testing system…

15/20 MALE.

4 of my 5 misses were in the first 5, and the second half were all correct, so when I hit my stride I was rocking.

#13 was scary looking.

13/20, male.

Some really bad teeth on those folks.

16/20. Male. Ignore the mouth. Watch the eyes.

10/20, Male.

Male 17/20

And I agree #13 reminded me of Frankenstein’s Bride.

Female, 16/20. Better than I thought I’d do!

Yeah, I am pretty sure I got thrown off my game for a few after that one.

Female - 18/20 and the two I got wrong I chose fake and they were not.

I didn’t feel like I was doing that well during the test, the score was a surprise.

Female, 20/20. Seriously, and I was surprised.

14/20 Female

Totally surprised at how badly I did.

18/20

I missed two genuine smiles. Numbers 11 and 15.

I just look to see if their eyes “light up” so to speak. The two that I missed had inexpressive eyes.

Male. 12/20, but I didn’t know until around #9 that what I was looking at were movies, not stills.
