【Abstract】 Previous studies indicated that adults’ eyes alone coul d convey as mu ch information as their faces could. This study aimed to test whether young chil dren could recognize four basic emotion states through the eyes alone. A revised B aron-Cohen (1997)’s paradigm was used to examine 159 participants from 4 to 7 y e ars old. There were significant differences between the face and the eyes alone, the eyes al one and the mouth alone. It indicatal that for very younger children the eyes co uld c onvey as much information of basic emotion as the whole face could, and the eyes alone could be emotional cues to young children.更多还原
