Overview

HSFEE consists of emotional facial expressions by 3 Israeli men and 3 Israeli women, created by instructing actors to show the respective expression. The set was created by Dr. Shimon Elkabetz in collaboration with Prof. Shlomo Hareli and Prof. Ursula Hess.

Expressions were validated in Hareli, Elkabetz & Hess (2019). The set contains expressions of happiness, awe, surprise, and neutrality for each actor. Photos were taken against a green screen background to enable electronic manipulation of background context.
