A Tilt of the Head Facilitates Social Engagement (IMAGE)
Caption
A tilt of the head leads people to look more at the eyes, perhaps because it makes them more approachable and less threatening. "When the head is tilted, we look at the upper eye more than either or both eyes when the head is upright," said Nicolas Davidenko. "I think this finding could be used therapeutically."
