Tóm tắt	Thin-slicing, established by Ambady and Rosenthal's 1992 meta-analysis, is the finding and method that judgments based on very brief samples of expressive behavior -- sometimes only a few seconds -- can predict consequential interpersonal outcomes with surprising accuracy. In the paradigm, short clips (thin slices) of a target's nonverbal and verbal behavior are shown to naive observers who rate a trait or quality, and these ratings are correlated with an independent criterion such as teaching effectiveness, clinical skill, rapport, or relationship outcomes. Ambady and Rosenthal showed across many studies that thin-slice judgments are reliable and valid, and that lengthening the observation often adds little accuracy. The method became a key tool for studying interpersonal perception, first impressions, and the information carried by brief behavioral displays, while also raising questions about the bases and biases of rapid social judgment.	Facial electromyography (EMG) measures affect by recording the tiny electrical signals produced by facial muscles, providing an objective, continuous index of emotional valence and intensity that can detect reactions too subtle or fleeting to produce a visible expression. Cacioppo, Petty, Losch, and Kim showed in 1986 that activity over two muscle regions differentiates affect: the corrugator supercilii (the brow muscle that furrows in frowning) increases with negative affect, while the zygomaticus major (the cheek muscle that pulls in smiling) increases with positive affect, and amplitudes scale with the intensity of the reaction. Because surface electrodes capture muscle activity even when no overt expression occurs, facial EMG offers a sensitive, hard-to-fake measure of evaluative responses widely used in research on attitudes, emotion, persuasion, and social perception, often paired with reaction-time and self-report measures.
