“…In evaluating the implications of this confound, it is important to consider the fact that research has consistently documented that females are more likely to smile than males. This is true not only in portrait photographs (LaFrance, 1985;Mills, 1984;Morse, 1982;Ragan, 19821, but also in social interactions between two unacquainted individuals of either the same or opposite gender (Frances, 1979;Halberstadt, Hayes, & Pike, 1988;Mackey, 1976) as well as in other social situations (see Hall, 1984, for a comprehensive review). It is therefore likely that smiling is actually more frequent in the resume photographs and interview behaviors of female than male applicants who are being considered for real jobs, and the results of the present study therefore generalize to actual employment settings.…”

“…These researchers found that the proportion of smiling faces in photographs increased over the years; however, for any given period, women were more likely to smile and did so more broadly than men, in nearly every type of photograph (photographs of people shot individually, in pairs, and in groups). Mills (1984) and Morse (1982) also found that women smile in photographs more frequently than men. Brennan et al (1991) found that women selected a smiling picture of themselves to appear in their yearbooks significantly more frequently than men, perhaps indicating that women generally wish to smile more than men.…”

“…Dit resultaat sluit aan bij de bevinding dat vrouwen meer glimlachen dan mannen in situaties waarin een goede indruk maken centraal staat, zoals een situatie waarin een (portret)foto wordt gemaakt (Mills, 1984;Morse, 1982;Ragan, 1982) of waarin een foto wordt gemaakt voor de sollicitatie naar een baan (Vrugt & Van Eechoud, 2002). Beoordelaars baseren zich op hun kennis van en ervaring met vrouwen die glimlachen voor een foto, als zij een vrouw die op een foto glimlacht in sterkere mate het motief een goede indruk maken toeschrijven dan mannen.…”

“…Wanneer er in onderzoek een foto gemaakt wordt die gebruikt zal worden voor onderzoek naar de waarneming van gezichten, glimlachen vrouwen niet meer dan mannen (Brennan-Parks, Goddard, Wilson & Kinnear, 1991). Wanneer er echter een schoolfoto of een portretfoto wordt gemaakt, glimlachen vrouwen meer dan mannen (Mills, 1984;Morse, 1982;Ragan, 1982). In aansluiting hierbij is door Vrugt en Van Eechoud (2002) geconstateerd dat vrouwen die gefotografeerd worden en een goede indruk willen maken op anderen die de foto gaan beoordelen, meer glimlachen dan mannen.…”
