Which disorder would greatly impair the capacity of a person to succeed in acting?

a. Broca’s aphasia
b. emotional facial paresis
c. volitional facial paresis
d. unilateral damage to the substantia nigra
e. unilateral damage to the caudate nucleus

Respuesta :

The correct answer is B. Emotional facial paresis

Explanation:

Emotional facial paresis occurs as there is a lesion in different sections of the brain but especially the facial nerve, that is the one that controls the muscles of facial expressions, and this causes the individual to have impaired activation of face muscles especially in the case the facial expressions are related to emotions. Due to this, patients experiencing emotional facial paresis are unable or have difficulties in showing facial expressions due to the muscle being weakened or paralyzed.

Considering the previous ideas, it is emotional facial paresis the disorder that would greatly impair the capacity of a person to succeed in acting because this disorder does not allow the individual to show facial expressions successfully and this is one of the main components of acting. Also, other disorders do not affect facial expression or at least not facial expression related to emotions.
