Sixteen schematic faces with two defining properties of eyes and lips drawn by arcs with varying curvatures were rank ordered by 37 university students according to their perceived intensities of smiling. The data were analyzed by a nonmetric maximum likelihood scaling method for directional rank order data. The analysis revealed (a) that the unconstrained model assuming no psychophysical relationships between the two curvatures of eyes and lips and the judged intensity of smiling fits the data better than a psychophysical function having a linear combination of the two curvatures as an independent variable, or than an additive function of two psychological effects elicited by eyes and lips, respectively;(b) but that the psychophysical function with a term of interaction effects between the two properties is the most appropriate model of the perceived intensity of smiling;(c) that eyes are interpreted twice as important as lips in perception of intensity of smiling of faces
