FEATURES OF KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING A PERSON THROUGH FACIAL EXPRESSIONS IN PSYCHOLOGY

This study presents the main data on the analysis of the features of cognition and understanding of a person through facial expressions in psychology based on complex, systemic, and psychological approaches. Also, the connection of facial expressions with social role, cultural norms, and individual temperament was scientifically based on the study of characters. The research results show that, although facial expressions in psychology are an important signaling system reflecting a person's inner mental state, they are important for contextual analysis, empathic sensitivity, and critical thinking in order to correctly interpret them.
