Selfie-Takers Prefer Left Cheeks: Converging Evidence from the (Extended) selfiecity Database
According to previous reports, selfie takers in widely different cultural contexts prefer poses showing the left cheek more than the right cheek. This posing bias may be interpreted as evidence for a right-hemispheric specialization for the expression of facial emotions.
