However, some studies do not replicate deficits in classifying facial emotion (e.g., Jahshan & Sergi, 2007 Shean, Bell, & Cameron, 2007), but these null findings are potentially limited by the emotion perception tasks used, which may be insufficiently sensitive. Other studies have extended these findings and observed that negative schizotypy is also related to deficits in facial affect (e.g., Abbott & Green, 2013 Williams, Henry, & Green, 2007). For example, van’t Wout, Aleman, Kessels, Larøi, and Kahn (2004) administered both the SPQ and a facial affect recognition task, and found that positive schizotypy correlated with misclassifying angry faces as happy, and the subscale of unusual perceptual experiences correlated with misclassifying happy faces as angry or fearful. Generally speaking, there is evidence that individuals with schizotypy show mildly impaired performance on tasks of social perception, though the nature of these impairments has not replicated well across studies. Inherent in both categories is the ability to read others’ emotional cues. Vocal perception involves recognizing and discriminating acoustic properties of speech, and the affective information they convey, where facial perception is decoding affective information from others’ facial expressions. Social perception is typically partitioned into two categories, namely facial perception and vocal perception ( Green et al., 2015). Cohen, in Social Cognition in Psychosis, 2019 Social perception Available scores assess the examinee’s overall performance, as well as the individual skills measured within and across the three tasks. This intentional lack of matching allows for better measurement of more subtle forms of communication, such as sarcasm. For Prosody-Face Matching and Prosody-Pair Matching, the statement content may not match the emotion expressed. In Prosody-Pair Matching, the examinee hears an audio-recorded statement and selects one photograph of interacting pairs of individuals from four choices that matches the meaning of the speaker’s statement. In Prosody-Face Matching, the examinee hears an audio-recorded statement and selects one face from four choices that matches the emotion expressed in the recording. In Affect Naming, the examinee is shown photographs of faces and selects an emotion from a card to describe the affect demonstrated in the photograph. Three tasks comprise Social Perception: Affect Naming, Prosody-Face Matching, and Prosody-Pair Matching. Social Perception measures comprehension of social communication, including facial affect recognition and naming, affect recognition from prosody and facial expressions, and affect recognition from prosody and interaction between people.
