In todays world of stress induced impairments
regulation of the emotions is essential demand. The
demands comparative to habits need selective attention,
planning, response suppression and response selection
for decision making. A central interest in the study of
emotions is the interplay between emotional expressions,
inhibitions and cognitive regulations. There is little
corresponding literature on facial emotion perception so
the study was planned to observe the interference and
inhibition during facial (happy, sad and neutral)
expressions. The results indicate that suppression of
automatic action in favor of controlled less automatic
facial expression required higher order visual
processing system including occipito-temporal-parietal
neural pathway.
