I've taken the same quiz and failed miserably 😬 On a similar note today I thought my boss was asking me a sarcastic question & laughed but later realized it was serious & I've been thinking about it ever since.
I got accused of giving a girl dirty looks it high school. It turns out that I was accidentally giving her the looks without even knowing it. Now I worry that I will accidentally offend someone with my facial expressions.
@Chicago London Girl unfortunately it's a dangerous and scary game for us autistic people. We don't know if we are hurting people or not without knowing it and it sucks. I hope that in the future NTs will be more understanding.
In high school there was a girl in my class who said I kept rolling my eyes at her - but I probably was actually rolling my eyes in that particular instance. Lol
I want to say that it's a terrible test. Some of those faces were blank. And who uses those multiple emotions like that? Plus the faces seemed like they were acting out what they thought the emotions should look like instead of actually capturing photos of people experiencing those emotions. And I don't really struggle with reading emotions, as far as I know.
I know! And I read somewhere that nobody can accurately guess emotions based on just an image, because in real life there is always some context around it. Lisa feldman barrett is the name of the researcher, I think.
I honestly feel like this isnt the best test bc of how staged the expressions are. But on that note I feel the struggle 🤣. I have so much trouble reading emotions unless I've known that person for a long time.
Swinging straight from "they're all too staged that's not how people actually look" to "why can't people just pick one emotion at a time?" and that about sums it up for me 😂
One of my best friends is autistic and I find she’s often really good at knowing right timing. Not necessarily because she is great at detecting emotions, but her empathy is really big. She knows she wouldn’t like it when something bothersome happens so she usually speaks up when something is wrong. We understand each other quite well! I also feel more comfortable opening up to her about things because of her really refreshing honesty and good moral compass ❤️
Lol I'm not autistic, and I struggled to read those faces. Not everyone make those faces like you said in the beginning that a lot of people express their emotions definitely. And even some people hide their emotions, especially when it is a negative emotion, so we can only get so far with identifying someone's emotions, unless the person tells you or you know them very well. On the other hand, some people are just so expressive that you can obviously tell how they feel.
One of the images looked, to me, like social anxiety.... and it turned out to be disgust! Which means I no longer have to worry about whether or not I'm giving off the wrong impression in a social situation, because I know the answer: the answer is that I could be at my most socially anxious just trying not to draw any attention to myself, and someone (like the creators of the quiz) will look over and say "what's wrong with her, she looks disgusted". I guess it's freeing to know that I can't get it "right", because then I can stop trying, and ultimately put the significant amount of energy it takes to be socially anxious, into something else.
They didn't make this easy! They've used other emotions to both qualify and quantify the extent and way in which these emotions presented! I didnt even know you could be fearfully disgusted. I left them video so confused as the vast spectrum of human emotion, and I pride myself on being able to read people like a book! 😪
Would fearfully disgusted be like, something that's so gross you're afraid it'll touch you? I think that might be how I am with bugs. I like to look at them, but if they touch me it's like, the worst thing ever.
@@sewpungyow5154 LOLOLOLOL dude that so confused me too. I dont think a human being in the entire history of humanity ever experienced anything like "happily disgusted". It's like saying "hatefuly loving" or "black =ly white" or "bottomly above". theyre by nature utterly opposed.
Some people fake emotions too, either to be polite, to fit in, or because they're being manipulative, which is really just another form of masking/aka being two faced.
I thought the exact same as you on all of these Chloé, I think it’s a pretty bad test haha. My facial expressions do not match up with my emotions so people always assume I’m upset or annoyed even when I’m really excited - I’m the irl Bucky Barnes haha
I do that too! The one she said looked like watching sports injuries, I had paused it and said to myself that it looked like someone who's afraid of bugs and thinks they're gross, suddenly seeing a leggy weird-looking bug.
I got a lot of them, and I think that's because of my autism mixed with c-ptsd. Reading faces kept me safe. And being raised by TV and having special interests of TV and movies.
I remember when I was little i got lots in trouble because to me people always looked liked they were smiling even tho they were mad so I hardly took anything serious because people were smiling but now I'm way older and I know now how to see the differences
I thought the same for disgust 🤣 I was like, this is what I feel like when I'm trying to listen but end up spacing out, overthinking, or don't know how to react. Is this why people often think I'm judging them?
It was interesting that they had a mix of the "obvious" (children's book) face as well as subtle ones. Subtle expressions are much more common in real life, and harder, especially without context. I think a 10-second video would be make the subtle less difficult to detect.
I can only express what I think these are with sounds like ugh or AaaAaAAah or phrases like uh oh or oh no she didn’t I’m pretty good with expressions in real life because of context, but even knowing the answer to these I still can’t grasp the idea of having so many emotions show in ones face at one time
They say that Luna Lovegood, and Hermonie Granger from the Harry Potter Universe are "autistic" but you know Luna Lovegood can read facial expressions really well. In Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows Part One, Luna is quoted in saying " Harry I have interupted a deep thought havent I. "Hey Harry does not feel like talking to us right now. He is Just to polite to say so."
As an Autistic human I did just as about as well as you did Chloe 🙂♡♡ Neurotypicals confuse me and I mean that in a loving and kind way 💕 As this test just proves how emotions aren't that black and white in everyone.. How emotions can be much more complex then people think, an lot like human- beings are as we're all multidimensional and don't all fit the same box, as what others expect this is especially true in Autistics..... As it's called an spectrum for an reason as you know 🙂♡♡ and we all have an varient of different traits and are so diverse from each other 🥰♡♡♡♡ I had to agree with you there Chloe you crack me up, exactly right
When i take these quizzes during intervention I always take a piece of paper list out all the options and why. Then my interventionist looks at me and shakes her head🥲
Well I already think that I'm autistic, but I thought my understanding of facial expression is pretty good. After this quiz I doubt that. Also I did the imitating of the faces too :) This strangely helps, cause otherwise I'm completely lost at finding the meaning
Chloe, I got most of them right, but a few I got wrong like the guy that you said was " content "I thought he was "being understanding" and here he had contempt. Whether you're neurotypical or neurodiverse it can be hard to always get people's facial expressions because we're all different. Like the one with the two eyes showing and covering their face, I thought that person was scared because of covering their face with their eyes extra wide open showed fear. However, most people who are afraid don't cover their face like that. There are people that cover their face for religious reasons, like some people in the Muslim faith. Chloe, I so love your lavender shirt because it's my favorite color! Thank you for this fun and interesting video 😃😃🦋🦋💖💖!!!
#1 I'm going to say you were right the first time, clearly constipated #2 Im guessing "what the" or disgusted #3 worried #4 sad #5 worried #6 funny #7 faking sad #8 frustrated #9 you gotta be right, caught his best mate and his girl #10 scared #11 surprised #12 happy/content #13 happy #14 scared #15 Fed up #16 neutral think I got 5.5 of the questions right lol
Can you understand drawn expressions? One of my lifelong interests is art/animation, and I can understand drawn expressions without issue, unless they're really lifelike. Lifelike faces and actual people's expressions aren't as easy for me to understand, I tend to feel like people are mad or upset with me, and it doesn't help I can't hold or make eye contact in 90% of interactions. I'm mostly asking because I was told my issues are entirely anxiety (my therapist thought combined autism/adhd, possibly ocd, but the specialist I saw cut out all the things I was diagnosed with previously and said it was just general anxiety). Part of why I was told this was because they showed me a picture book and asked to to describe the faces in it, but they were all cartoony so of course I understood perfectly what each expression meant. On real people it's more difficult, like I really struggle to understand if my mom is actually happy, if she's really angry, if she's just tired? Idk, I'm really lost at the moment and I guess I'm trying to figure out what's going on in my head, I relate very much to autistic/adhd people (my 2 friends are adhd & one has ocd), but they said I was too expressive and communicated too well to be autistic. They said nothing about adhd...they also said labels are just for getting meds and they don't like them, and I should be grateful because anxiety can be cured.
I once had to do a drama review on a play where one part was talking about the actors facial expressions and i COULD NOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME get any of their facial expressions. I think i might have had a breakdown at home abt it bc i thought i was gonna fail the test. Ah autism. I hate it
NTs often think I'm angry when i'm just neutral because "resting bitch face". I did worse than I thought I would. I had too much confidence in my picture face emotion reading lol. I got some of them ... in real life my default is to think everyone is angry but that might be trauma ... In those pictures I didn't guess nearly enough anger lol or disgust.
I did awful didn’t get some of the ones you did. I got the fear one but only guessed coz his eyebrows looked like they were going down but then thought if he had smaller eyebrows I dunno if I’d have noticed 🥴
Chloe's DEFINITELY right about the FEAR one. Irl, fearful people do NOT make those eye movements AT ALL but theyre much less muted, because a true threat doesnt allow you to look so exaggerated like this person does. I ALSO CHOSE SURPRISE/SHOCK. Fear is there but it looks like it's a "Fake Fear" to me which makes me not take it seriously.
On a similar note the other day I realised that if I’m trying to find an emoji I’ll mimic the facial expression and I only realised when someone said to me “why are you making that face” whilst I was trying to find a similar emoji to this 😖
It's as if they want people to answer the emotion being used to hide the real emotion which personally I've experienced acknowledging someone's actual emotions and then they get mad because I ignored the fake one's It's so messed up
@@nicholaslandry6367 i know, like pls, we both know you aren't being guenuine, what do you want?? Just speak plainly to me, your subtle tactics aren't working...
This one guy's face was like really expressive and I noticed some patterns throughout the video, that made it a little bit easier to guess what emotions are showing in his face. However, someone else might be just as expressive, but they show the exact emotions in a different way, their face would look so different. It's like, you think you figured out the rules, then you apply them to someone else, and it suddenly doesn't fit anymore. And besides that, let's be real, hardly anyone in this world has such an expressive face. It's like, you could be happy, you could be sad, you could be angry, you might just be existing in the moment, I will never know. And because of that, my masking made my face super expressive, like a cartoon character, which is so annoying for me.
I think it's because we categorize things by micro-categories, like 'facial expressions of Jim' rather than broader categories such as 'sad facial expressions'. We'll definitely know if Jim is sad because we know his expressions, but we won't know if stereotypical X is sad
I only just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I just wanna say thank you. You've really helped me to accept who I am and to be proud of who I am
Me: I bet I can do this! Me: *fails so so bad* The first one where you said pushing out a turd, literally the first thing I thought it was that he smelled somebody fart on him or something. I should’ve known how badly it was going to go from the outset.
that second guy in the test I DID see something "behind the eyes" that looked like Judgement or that thing where a guys like, "yes Im going to go up to tht girl and talk to her and act tough" like "intent" or "ambition" but the "wheels are turning" as they say. It's VERY slight, but it's there. Somewhere, I dont know where. "Disgust" though Im not so sure if that's there AT ALL, not sure this test is that accurate, though something slightly different is. Maybe Im not autistic???? God I love this video
The thing is, I can understand facial expressions (through manually working them out) But, facial expressions aren't exactly reliable.. People fake facial expressions, and lie. If you just assume people's emotions by their face, If you can't detect fake facial expressions, you clearly aren't going to pick up on the body language. I can always tell how someone's truly feeling, what their intentions are and when they are lying Precisely BECAUSE I don't rely upon facial expressions. Also, people may call us 'rude', simply for seeing past the face they're putting on and being honest and authentic. I'm not going to pander to someone being fake polite to me or lying to me. I'll be nice if I have no reason not to. Im not going to be extra nice towards an inauthentic person.
I agree so much! Though personally I also find it easier to tell if I’ve known someone for a very long time. I think I do have an issue with recognizing emotions, but I learn through observing. Like you, I can sometimes actually be quite insightful, cause I’m overly observant due to my insecurity surrounding my autism. People give way more physical and tonal tells of how they’re feeling than their face. Because I pay particularly close attention to the way people speak, I can pretty quickly identify a shift in emotion through voice tone. I still struggle with sarcasm, but when it comes to genuine emotion, I can spot it well. People are way more aware of how they’re physically perceived when attempting to hide emotions than they are of their voice.
I had difficulty understanding what tears of joy was it just looks like they crying water running down cheeks from eyes but I managed worked it took 30 years to work it out if they laughing and tears running same tome it’s tears joy
I'm doing just as well as you these pictures suck lol... (Me being someone that has a pretty easy time knowing what people are feeling) I mean tbh it would be hard to show a range of emotions just off the top of your head when your not even feeling that way which is why it doesn't really look quite right lol... Anyways ya I think also in purson I pick up more on the "vibe" like little things in their body language that give me insight into how their feeling it's more then just their face that tells me especially since a lot of people try to hide their feelings... 🤔
I'm taking the test while I watch this. Pausing it to answer... The first expression looks like he smelled a really horrendous fart. The 2nd looks like he just stepped on a nail but doesn't want to draw attention to the fact. The 3rd looks guilty. The 4th looks like he just woke up and doesn't know where he is. #5- You can't fool me, that's the 2nd one again! #6- I agree with Chloe... happy. (WHAT?!Happily disgusted? That's not even a thing!!!) #7- I'm thinking sad, but if they say sadly disgusted I'm gonna quite this test... (Chloe didnt say, so I'll never know...) #8- I'm guessing angry. (Yay I was half right) #9- He's about to sneeze? #10- My guess is Surprise, and I think that's Eric Idle in a Monty Python movie #11- No wait, THAT'S surprised (Yay I got it...) #12- Satisfied (close enough, these are getting easier) #13- "I'm gonna be a daddy!" (yep, that would be "happily surprised") #14- Okay, that one was easy with my social anxieties i spend a lot of time like that but do my best to hide it. #15- Is being a terrorist an expression? (terrorists are probably angry so I'll give myself that one...) #16- I'm gonna say "contemplative", lost in thought. Boy was I wrong, no wonder I'm so happy I'm oblivious to everyone's contempt. I blame this lousy test. How do I know THEY know what the expression is with a bunch of stock pictures? They could have just made it all up. If they did take these pictures are the subjects only ACTING these emotions, or really feeling them? If they are, how did they put that one guy thru so many sad and disgusting situations? Or maybe I'd do better with female faces. Guys seem weirdly unexpressive to me as if showing feelings is a sign of weakness while my girl friends wear their heart on their face. Anyway that was a fun but I'm not gonna use it for a diagnosis, I'm fine with :"I'm PROBABLY somewhere on the spectrum it just explains so much about my life..."
I've taken the same quiz and failed miserably 😬
On a similar note today I thought my boss was asking me a sarcastic question & laughed but later realized it was serious & I've been thinking about it ever since.
Yikes 😭 but it’s okay it happens to us all
lol it helps that I have trust issues from childhood abuse so I always just..assume the worst. lol IT'S EXHAUSTING.
Someone told me "this is why no one likes you"
I cried,
And it took me a week to realize they meant it as a joke
I dont think ppl actually use this expressions irl 😭 even NT's say this is hard lmaoo

The test shows a neutral expression: fearfully disgusted
Me: wait for the heck?
Seriously though, half of the answers sound made up.
That's reality. People don't tend to showcase their emotions that overtly, but there are almost always subtle cues that give it away.

me for the 6th time: oh that's definitely confused this time
this quiz 100% confirmed that i am in fact autistic
I get it
I think it's because we categorize things by micro-categories, like 'facial expressions of Jim' rather than broader categories such as 'sad facial expressions'. We'll definitely know if Jim is sad because we know his expressions, but we won't know if stereotypical X is sad
Yeah dude I agree. You got some complicated ones. What's with the dual emotions? Keep it simple quiz people!
Interesting video. Thanks.
I can’t wait to see you on Zoom today 😁
I only just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I just wanna say thank you. You've really helped me to accept who I am and to be proud of who I am
Men and women with autism I’m autistic too
My answer to the first one was constipated lol
Me: I bet I can do this!
Me: *fails so so bad*
The first one where you said pushing out a turd, literally the first thing I thought it was that he smelled somebody fart on him or something. I should’ve known how badly it was going to go from the outset.
When I saw those in thumbnail
The guy with the weird hat WAS DEFINITELY NOT ANGER. NO. FUCKING. WAY. NOOOO WAY. Im with you on this.
i think whoever made this test doesn’t know what emotions look like 😂
She actually starts the guessing at 3:47
that second guy in the test I DID see something "behind the eyes" that looked like Judgement or that thing where a guys like, "yes Im going to go up to tht girl and talk to her and act tough" like "intent" or "ambition" but the "wheels are turning" as they say. It's VERY slight, but it's there. Somewhere, I dont know where. "Disgust" though Im not so sure if that's there AT ALL, not sure this test is that accurate, though something slightly different is. Maybe Im not autistic???? God I love this video
I feel like there is absolutely nothing wrong your comprehension here. These expressions are really specific and your answers were decent.
The thing is, I can understand facial expressions (through manually working them out)
But, facial expressions aren't exactly reliable.. People fake facial expressions, and lie.
If you just assume people's emotions by their face, If you can't detect fake facial expressions, you clearly aren't going to pick up on the body language.
I can always tell how someone's truly feeling, what their intentions are and when they are lying
Precisely BECAUSE I don't rely upon facial expressions.
Also, people may call us 'rude', simply for seeing past the face they're putting on and being honest and authentic. I'm not going to pander to someone being fake polite to me or lying to me. I'll be nice if I have no reason not to. Im not going to be extra nice towards an inauthentic person.
I agree so much! Though personally I also find it easier to tell if I’ve known someone for a very long time. I think I do have an issue with recognizing emotions, but I learn through observing. Like you, I can sometimes actually be quite insightful, cause I’m overly observant due to my insecurity surrounding my autism.
People give way more physical and tonal tells of how they’re feeling than their face. Because I pay particularly close attention to the way people speak, I can pretty quickly identify a shift in emotion through voice tone. I still struggle with sarcasm, but when it comes to genuine emotion, I can spot it well. People are way more aware of how they’re physically perceived when attempting to hide emotions than they are of their voice.
I had difficulty understanding what tears of joy was it just looks like they crying water running down cheeks from eyes but I managed worked it took 30 years to work it out if they laughing and tears running same tome it’s tears joy
I did horrendous too and I'm Autistic
Idk about you but I put my hand over my mouth and give a death glare when I’m suprized
My solution: made it my special interest😂
Is it me or does the happy one look like Loki from marvel
I thought I could read emotions well, but after this I don't think so. I was getting them wrong and was feeling a bit queasy in the belly.
hello
what website did you use to get those faces?
9:50 i said sneeze... no emotion, just sneeze
Ok I am not autistic but i failed this test miserably
i did horribly :) also, i love the anthropocene reviewed!
I'm doing just as well as you these pictures suck lol... (Me being someone that has a pretty easy time knowing what people are feeling) I mean tbh it would be hard to show a range of emotions just off the top of your head when your not even feeling that way which is why it doesn't really look quite right lol... Anyways ya I think also in purson I pick up more on the "vibe" like little things in their body language that give me insight into how their feeling it's more then just their face that tells me especially since a lot of people try to hide their feelings... 🤔
Double emotions expressions are quite hard
these were hard
I cannot imagine anyone would be good at understanding these expressions 🤔 I would reply in a very similar way.
You did better than me 😊 it was a very hard test. I have to have context to tell what anyone is feeling.
U look nice
my problems with reading face expressions is that i don't know why they're angry at me.
Love the flower crown, it’s suits you.
I did slightly better than you… and agree that test was hard.
I'm not diagnosed with anything beside adhd, but I only was able to read the basic faces
ME TOO
I got all of these wrong 😅
Even with the blank faces they aren't blank you can see it in the eyes
Yo I not autistic and can not tell what some of these are
I'm taking the test while I watch this. Pausing it to answer...
The first expression looks like he smelled a really horrendous fart.
The 2nd looks like he just stepped on a nail but doesn't want to draw attention to the fact.
The 3rd looks guilty.
The 4th looks like he just woke up and doesn't know where he is.
#5- You can't fool me, that's the 2nd one again!
#6- I agree with Chloe... happy. (WHAT?!Happily disgusted? That's not even a thing!!!)
#7- I'm thinking sad, but if they say sadly disgusted I'm gonna quite this test... (Chloe didnt say, so I'll never know...)
#8- I'm guessing angry. (Yay I was half right)
#9- He's about to sneeze?
#10- My guess is Surprise, and I think that's Eric Idle in a Monty Python movie
#11- No wait, THAT'S surprised (Yay I got it...)
#12- Satisfied (close enough, these are getting easier)
#13- "I'm gonna be a daddy!" (yep, that would be "happily surprised")
#14- Okay, that one was easy with my social anxieties i spend a lot of time like that but do my best to hide it.
#15- Is being a terrorist an expression? (terrorists are probably angry so I'll give myself that one...)
#16- I'm gonna say "contemplative", lost in thought. Boy was I wrong, no wonder I'm so happy I'm oblivious to everyone's contempt.
I blame this lousy test. How do I know THEY know what the expression is with a bunch of stock pictures? They could have just made it all up. If they did take these pictures are the subjects only ACTING these emotions, or really feeling them? If they are, how did they put that one guy thru so many sad and disgusting situations? Or maybe I'd do better with female faces. Guys seem weirdly unexpressive to me as if showing feelings is a sign of weakness while my girl friends wear their heart on their face. Anyway that was a fun but I'm not gonna use it for a diagnosis, I'm fine with :"I'm PROBABLY somewhere on the spectrum it just explains so much about my life..."
I'd say happily disgusted is, like, trying a weird combination of food for fun, going like "Ewww that's so gross haha I'm gonna put it in my mouth"
i got like two of them lol
