Problem: Please respond "In what ways do you think our individual differences, characteristics, and personalities are what determine how we react to an emotion, specifically facial expressions? Why do you think some are better at hiding their emotions (physically) than others? I have friends, colleagues, and family members who all respond to situations significantly different. I know many women who respond with big feelings and emotions, to the smallest event and some who are able to stay "stone face" and seemingly unbothered about bigger events. This is because of a combination of things, "affect" and "bodily state". Affect refers to the experience an individual has to an event, which includes facial expressions and "bodily state" is how your body reacts to the event, which include rapid breathing, change in heart rate, perspiring or crying (Decker, 2022). Thinking about differences in personalities and our individual differences, self-conscious emotions can be directly linked to personality, and can include responses in facial expressions such as looking downward, small shy smiles and blushing (Decker, 2022). We all respond with facial expressions and our bodies, but WHO we are has molded and shaped HOW we respond. Need Assignment Help?
