In his research,he asked 44 participants aged 18-35 to play a geography quiz game consisting of nine difficult questions so that they often got the answer wrong.Participants seated interacted with a computer alone in a room while their faces were video recorded. After the quiz,the participants were asked to rate their experience using a range of 12 emotions including"bored","interested"and#frustrated".Meanwhile,their facial expressions were then computer analysed frame by frame in order to judge how much they were smiling based on a scale of between 0 to 1. Dr Witchel said:"According to some researchers,a real smile reflects the inner state of cheerfulness or amusement.However,behavioural ecology theory suggests that all smiles are tools used in social interactions,meaning cheerfulness is neither necessary nor rich for smiling.Our study showed that in these human-computer interaction experiments,smiling isn't driven by happiness;:it is associated with subjective involvement(主观参与，which acts like a social fuel for smiling,even when socialising with a computer on your own." Surprisingly,participants didn't tend to smile during the period when they were trying to figure out the answers.However,they did smile right after the computer game informed them if their answer was correct or wrong.Participants smiled more often when they got the answer wrong.Dr Witchel added:"During these computerised quizzes,smiling was greatly increased just after answering questions incorrectly.This behaviour could be explained by self-ratings of involvement,rather than by ratings of happiness or frustration." 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。人们普遍认为微笑意味着一个人是快乐的，但是研究 表明，微笑仅是社交的需要，并不表明这个人一定是快乐的。 1
