Wearing mask - How does it affect your mood?

AADIJan 18 2022

Wearing masks has become an essentiallity due to the ongoing covid pandemic to ensure others and our safety. Nowadays, we can't go anywhere without a maks! A number of experiments and reports show that face masks influence the human ability to infer emotions by observing facial expressions. Human being by design, have an automatic abitity to imitate others' facial expressions of emotions. When I used to go out and play, I would smile, frown or shout in the elevator, lobby and the playground depending upon the facial expressions and emotions; but now, almost the entire face of the people whom I meet outdoors is covered with a face mask. So I am unable to gauge their emotions. Understanding emotions is crucial for social interaction. Doctors also fear that young preschoolers might have problems identifying emotions and facial expressions. During communication, various non-verbal aspects of language convey emotions such as the pitch, loudness, timbre, speech rate and pauses. So that is why I think face masks not let you show your emotions clearly.
