Spotting Fake Smiles

I got 11/20 right.  Or about the same as if I just guessed.

Can you do better?

15 of 20, and most of my errors were at the beginning. Once I got into the swing of it, it wasn't that difficult.

I got 14 - and two of the ones I got wrong were ones where I really wasn't sure. Interesting, thanks.

I got 16 out of 20, much better than I thought. I got all the non-whites correct, I'm not sure if that means anything. I look at the eyes to see if it's a real smile. That first guy I missed I should've got if I was paying attention when the video ran.

16/20, and all my misses were men (I'm a girl).

16 out of 20 from this side of the pond.
Cool quiz, thanks for posting.

I got 14/20. So, I'm not completely socially clueless, hmm.

Hmm...

You got 16 out of 20 correct

I also got 16 out of 20. The trick did seem to be watching the eyes--the smile of the ones I pegged as fake either never reached the eyes or left them before the rest of the face returned to normal.

17 out of 20
The question at the end "which part of the face helped the most" I found misleading. The eyes helped but in general I went for speed of return to non-smile and the shoulder shake that shows they're laughing :)

16/20 and two of the ones i got wrong i was unsure about..

I had a problem with the interface and actually missed the first smile altogether. I got it wrong and ended up with 17/20. The other two misses were ones I wasn't sure about.

Maybe I have learned something from working retail?

Ugh.

I got 17 out of 20. The 3 I missed were the ones about which I was most uncertain. (In at least one, the angle of the person's head throughout was rather... odd.)
