Table 3.

This table describes the relation between the ability of the components of anger and fear (the emotion least well-recognized) to increase the likelihood for recognitions of the emotions which they were most confused with (anger components with fear, and fear components with sad and anger).

Components that predicted an unexpected emotion were colored with the color of that emotion: red for anger, green for fear and blue for sadness. For example: Condense and Enclose which was originally associated with fear (green), was found to increase the likelihood of recognizing sadness (blue).
