The Child Affective Facial Expression (CAFE) set

The Child Affective Facial Expression Set (CAFE) is a collection of photographs taken of 2- to 8-year-old children (M = 5.3 years; R = 2.7 – 8.7 years) posing for 6 emotional facial expressions—sadness, happiness, surprise, anger, disgust, and fear—plus a neutral face. The full set features 90 female models and 64 male models (27 African American, 16 Asian, 77 Caucasian/European American, 23 Latino, and 11 South Asian). With the exception of surprise, children were asked to pose for each expression with their mouths open and with their mouths closed. Surprised faces were only posed with their mouths open. Open mouth disgusted faces generally included a tongue protrusion. In total, we had 154 child-models pose each of these 7 expressions. Not all children were able to successfully pose for all 7 expressions, so all unsuccessful attempts were eliminated from the set. The result is 1192 total photographs. Demographic information and validity/reliability data from 100 untrained adults on each face in the set is available in a sortable Excel file under "Materials."

儿童情感面部表情数据集（Child Affective Facial Expression Set，CAFE）是一套面部照片集合，拍摄对象为2至8岁儿童（平均年龄为5.3岁，年龄跨度为2.7–8.7岁），要求摆出6种情绪面部表情——悲伤、快乐、惊讶、愤怒、厌恶、恐惧——外加中性面部表情。完整数据集包含90名女性儿童模特与64名男性儿童模特，其中27人为非裔美国人、16人为亚裔、77人为白人/欧洲裔美国人、23人为拉丁裔、11人为南亚裔。除惊讶表情外，儿童需分别摆出嘴巴张开与闭合的对应表情；惊讶表情仅允许采用嘴巴张开的姿态。张嘴的厌恶表情通常会伴随舌头伸出的动作。总计有154名儿童模特参与了7种表情的拍摄，但并非所有儿童都能成功摆出全部7种表情，因此所有未成功的拍摄尝试均被剔除，最终得到共计1192张照片。数据集包含儿童模特的人口统计学信息，以及100名未经过训练的成年人对每张面部的效度与信度评分数据，该数据可在“材料”板块下的可排序Excel文件中获取。请注意，CAFE数据集的图像受版权保护，不得公开发布（包括期刊、图书章节等场景）。使用本数据集时，请同时引用介绍该数据集的论文：LoBue, V., & Thrasher, C.
