Abstract

When judging their social counterpart’s emotional state, humans predominantly rely on nonverbal signals. In a natural environment, this nonverbal emotional communication is multimodal (i.e., facial expressions and speech melody, but also gestures, posture, or nonverbal vocalizations). Therefore, the integration of information from different sensory channels into a common percept of the current emotional state, intentions, or attitude of the social counterpart presents an elementary ability required for successful social interaction.
