Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Frankie's smile is in response to his father singing, indicating a social smile which is a deliberate and intentional expression of positive emotion in response to another person. Reflexive smiles are automatic and do not depend on external stimuli, basic smiles are spontaneous but not necessarily in response to social interaction, and internal-based smiles are subjective and depend on personal satisfaction or emotions rather than social interaction.
