Sydney, Oct 22 (ANI): The Duchenne smile, a "genuine grin", it's named for 19th-century French scientist Duchenne de Boulogne, whose name is associated with a form of muscular dystrophy.
The "flirty, coy smile", often, the person looks out of the corner of the eyes, head turned.
The "amused smile" comes with the chortle after a good joke, with the head thrown back.
While those three expressions obviously convey signals to other people, Simon-Thomas said they're essentially "self-oriented." "If you're making one of these smiles, you don't necessarily want to approach the other person to meet their needs," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted her as saying.
Contrast that with three kinds of 'pro-social smiles' that convey a desire to bond, there is, the "love smile", often with a tilted head and softened eyes, the "interested smile", with raised eyebrows and a slight grin and the "embarrassed smile", sometimes with the eyes cast downward.
