Research that suggested that there is a fixed set of facial expressions to codify emotions were based on flawed research. The research prejudiced the answers to fit the western model. Thus, the researchers methodology contaminated the results.
- Emotions are constructed
- Words are powerful in categorization
- Those with a limited set of emotional words have a limited ability to identify emotions
