Which statement about chin placement is correct?

• A. A raised chin gives people the impression that you are looking down on them.
• B. Pulling in your chin will also raise your eye line, making you look timid.
• C. Pulling in your chin will also raise your eye line, giving people the impression that you are looking down on them.
• D. A raised chin will also raise your eye line, creating a soft expression.

Answer: (B)

The main idea is how chin position changes the head tilt and eye line, which in turn shapes the impression you give. When you pull your chin in, the head tilts slightly and the eyes appear higher in the frame. That higher eye line tends to soften facial cues and can make you come across as timid or reserved rather than assertive. So the statement that pulling in your chin raises the eye line and produces a timid look matches how the gaze and posture interact to convey mood. The other options describe effects that don’t align with this eye-line shift—such as a raised chin implying dominance or looking down on others, or pairing a raised chin with a soft expression—so they don’t fit the observed relationship between chin position, eye line, and impression.
