Hemispheric Processing of Facial Emotion Recognition and Development in Children
Abstract
This chapter examines facial emotion recognition, a vital skill for social interaction and emotional development, from evolutionary, developmental, and neurological perspectives. It explores how children's ability to recognize emotions develops through social experiences, brain maturation, and lateralization. Key milestones, such as the shift from featural to holistic facial processing and sensitivity to emotional intensity, are discussed alongside insights into the right hemisphere's dominance in emotion recognition. The chapter also highlights sex differences, the role of the corpus callosum in hemispheric integration, and how these factors shape developmental trajectories. Drawing on behavioral and electrophysiological studies, it connects neural and cognitive processes with emotion recognition, showing evidence for gradual neural specialization. Finally, it bridges theory to practice by proposing applications in interventions for neurodevelopmental conditions, educational strategies, and the development of emotion recognition technologies.
