Full textThe work presented in this thesis aimed to explored the cardiac response of the emotions of disgust and fear using visuo-auditory and olfactory stimuli. This thesis is organized into three major sections. The first section provides a brief revision of the theories of emotions, a brief description of automatic recognition of emotion based on ECG (electrocardiogram) and a review of chemosensory signals transmitted via body odors, as well as their effects in human’s physiological, cognitive and behavioral responses. The second section presents the four studies that were conducted. In Study 1we used movies to induce disgust, fear and neutral emotions and examined whether noise entropy of ECG can work as a potential biomarker to discriminate disgust from fear and neutral conditions. The results showed that it is possible to discriminate such emotions based on ECG noise entropy with 88% (p<.05) accuracy and that the median value of the disgust condition was higher when compared with the fear and neutral conditions. In Study 2 we developed and tested a classifier to automatically classify emotions using noise entropy of ECG. The performance of the classifier was good for fear and disgust identification (60% of sensitivity and 80% of specificity) and perfect for identification of the neutral condition (100%). In addition to the responses to the visual stimuli, we also evaluated the cardiac response using olfactory stimuli, namely the body odors collected in conditions of disgust, fear and neutral. To control for potential individual differences in disgust propensity and sensitivity on body odor perception, in Study 3 we examined the psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of DPSS-R. The results confirmed the existence of two distinct factors, disgust propensity and sensitivity. Moreover, the scale showed an acceptable convergent and discriminant validity and a satisfactory reliability. In the Study 4 we investigated how a BO prime affects the emotional tone of a subsequent BO message, on cardiac and subjective responses. The results demonstrated a reduction in heart rate variability (HRV-HF) when the participants smelled the neutral body odors after they smelled the disgust and fear body odors. The effect of order of presentation was also evident in the subjective ratings, with the neutral odors being perceived as more intense when the receivers smelled the neutral odors after they smelled the negative body odors. Such effects were independent of the pleasantness of the body odors. Finally, in the third section we presented the general discussion of the main results, the current limitations of the studies as well the future directions and the potential implications and applications of the results. Overall, the findings of the studies described in this thesis suggest that the ECG noise contains meaningful information that can allow emotion recognition and that the order of presentation of body odor can affect the cardiac response and subjective response of the receivers.
O trabalho apresentado nesta tese teve como objetivo explorar a resposta cardíaca das emoções de nojo e de medo usando estímulos visuo-auditivos e olfativos. Esta tese está organizada em três grandes partes. A primeira parte apresenta uma breve revisão das teorias das emoções, uma descrição sobre o reconhecimento automático da emoção baseado no sinal do ECG e uma revisão acerca dos sinais químico-sensoriais transmitidos pelos odores corporais, assim como os seus efeitos nas respostas fisiológicas, cognitivas e subjetivas. A segunda parte apresenta os quatro estudos que foram realizados. No Estudo 1 usámos filmes para induzir as respostas emocionais de nojo, de medo e neutras e examinámos se a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG pode funcionar como um potencial biomarcador para discriminar as três condições emocionais. Os resultados mostraram que é possível discriminar as três condições emocionais usando a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG com 88% (p < .05) de precisão e que o valor da mediana da condição de nojo foi superior, quando comparado com as condições de medo e neutras. No Estudo 2 usámos a entropia do ruído do sinal de ECG para desenvolver e testar um algoritmo que classifica as emoções automaticamente. O classificador obteve um bom desempenho na identificação de nojo e medo (com 60% de sensibilidade e 80% de especificidade) e um desempenho perfeito na condição neutra. Para além da resposta a estímulos visuais, também avaliámos a resposta cardíaca usando estímulos olfativos, nomeadamente os odores corporais de nojo, medo e neutros. De forma a controlar as diferenças individuais da propensão e sensibilidade ao nojo na perceção dos odores corporais, no Estudo 3 examinámos as características psicométricas da versão Portuguesa da DPSS-R. Os resultados confirmaram a existência de dois fatores independentes, propensão e sensibilidade ao nojo. Adicionalmente, a escala obteve uma validade convergente e discriminante aceitável e confiabilidade satisfatória. No Estudo 4, investigámos como é que os odores corporais recolhidos em condições emocionais específicas influenciam a resposta de odores corporais emocionais apresentados subsequentemente, ao nível subjetivo e da resposta cardíaca. Os resultados demonstraram uma redução da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca (HF-HRV) quando os participantes cheiraram os odores corporais neutros depois dos odores corporais de nojo e de medo. O efeito da ordem de apresentação dos odores corporais também se verificou nas avaliações subjetivas, sendo os odores corporais neutros avaliados como mais intensos depois da apresentação dos odores de medo e de nojo. Este efeito foi independente da agradabilidade atribuída aos odores corporais. Finalmente, na terceira parte, apresentamos a discussão geral dos principais resultados, as limitações dos estudos, bem como propostas para estudos futuros e potenciais implicações e aplicações dos resultados. Em síntese, os resultados dos estudos descritos neste trabalho sugerem que o ruído do ECG contém informações significativas que podem permitir reconhecer emoções e que a ordem de apresentação do odor corporal pode afetar a resposta cardíaca e subjetiva dos participantes.

Full textArtificial intelligence (AI) is already a fundamental component of computer games. In this context is emotions a growing part in simulating real life. The proposed emotional state module, provides a way for the game agents to select an action in real-time virtual environments. The modules function has been tested with the open-source strategy game ORTS. This thesis proposes a new approach for the design of an interacting network, similar to a spreading activation system, of emotional states that keeps track of emotion intensities changing and interacting over time. The network of emotions can represent any number of persisting states, such as moods, emotions and drives. Any emotional signal can affect every state positively or negatively. The states' response to emotional signals are influenced by the other states represented in the network. The network is contained within an emotional state module. This interactions between emotions are not the focus of much research, neither is the representation model. The focus tend to be on the mechanisms eliciting emotions and on how to express the emotions.

Full textSeveral psycho-physiological studies have provided evidences about the reciprocal influence between respiration and psychological variables but few attentions have been brought to the investigation of the expressive function of breathing sounds. Study 1 aims to build a multilayer analysis model that enable an acoustic description of breathing sounds. Audio and video recordings of breathing of two pairs of participants engaged in individual and joint performance were conducted. 1903 were video and audio analyzed and 3 sets of indexes were derived: respiratory, acoustic and interactive (aimed to relate partner’s respiratory behaviour during joint performances). Study 2 investigates what could be inferred about a person’s identity, emotional state and activity from the sound of his/her breathing. Moreover, it aims to verify whether imitation of breathing patterns improve the identification of those features. Ecological recordings of breathing sounds of people engaged in 6 activities and 4 emotions. 90 participants listen to the tracks and answer a questionnaire about such variables. Other 90 mimicked the tracks before answering. Participants were able to infer valuable information about the aspects under investigation with better results in the imitation task. Study 3 aims to describe the acoustic features of 6 emotional breathing patterns (anger, fear, sadness, disgust, tenderness and joy) and to see whether breathing together could strengthen the attunement process. 20 pairs of women participated. For each emotion, within the pair one participant read a story emotionally connoted and breathes as if she actually was in that situation. Her partner had to convey her closeness breathing in the same way. Finally they filled in a questionnaire. Different respiratory patterns were related to each emotion. Moreover the task influenced several attunement dimensions: synchronization, emotional decoding, emotional experience and perception of interpersonal similarity.

Full textSymbols have always been an important part of mathematics, which is why learning thesymbolic language is necessary in order to acquire a full understanding of the subject.This study aims to investigate the use of the symbolic language in the Swedish uppersecondary school from a linguistic perspective. The data for this study consists of samplesfrom 52 student solutions from a mathematical test, together with one transcribed groupinterview, where two students participated. The analysis is based on theories about themetalinguistic awareness and symbols’ semiotic and epistemological functions. The roleof the mathematical symbolic language described in the steering documents has also beenconsidered in the study. From the mistakes made in the test, it was possible to visualisethe importance of the metalinguistic awareness and the semiotic mediation in algebralearning. In the end, it also became clear that the mathematical symbolic language needsa more explicit role in the Swedish mathematics education.

Full textThis study focuses on the way emotional aspects appear in the verbal part of press advertisements in German, with no intention to confirm the existence of emotional or rational advertising, but rather to describe the complementarity of these concepts, on both a functional and a formal level. To that end, its thematic development has been used as an indicator of the textual organization, since it allows analysis of the semantic-syntactic resources relating them to the communicative functions, from which the connections between sentence type and sentence mode have been established. Furthermore, this choice has allowed reveal the indirect realization forms, signs of a persuasive strategy. Finally, in order to analyze the persuasive strategies of emotional involvement, a catalogue has been elaborated with categories revealing the existing attachment between the interlocutors (proximity or distance) and the use of empathy. The study data were extracted from a verbal language corpus. It consists of 178 advertisements, each of these classified into a thematic development. All advertisements were transcribed and lemmatized to ensure sufficient representativeness. The analysis results do not deviate from the traditional proposal of textual typology; they show a preeminence of descriptive strategies in advertising discourse formulation. Furthermore, it has been substantiated the existence of emotional aspects, both by means of the expressive function and by means of the persuasive strategies of emotional involvement, thereby stressing its role as a complement to the information transfer, which has also been very prominent. These conclusions are added to the contributions of the so called emotional intelligence, which draws the attention to the importance of emotions at decisiontaking. Likewise, the presence of emotionality reflects indisputable attributes of contemporary society, focused on entertainment and its quest for emotions. Finally, it is relevant to mention the usefulness of the material as teaching material in the classroom, both for its content and its communicative frame, as well as the potential application of its analysis method in other fields.

Full textNormal, or resilient, grief has often been neglected in the literature, overshadowed by the greater number of studies on pathological grief. This fact, congruent with the trend towards a culture of medicalization, can explain the normalization of the idea of grief as uselessly painful, or even harmful, a nuisance to productivity and functioning. On the other hand, there has been a growing interest in the processes of normal grief in recent years, the idea that resilient grief is more common than pathological grief having only been recently supported by empirical research (Bonanno, 2009). However, the function and nature of grief-related emotions, which are often seen as symptoms, still isn’t clear. Sadness, contrarily to common knowledge, seems to be a healthy characteristic of resilient grief, and could have an adaptive function, whereas distress and depression would evoke the protest and despair phases of the separation between the child and her attachment figure. Thus, these three affective experiences would be qualitatively, and not only quantitatively, distinct. This thesis aims to present, in its first part, a theoretical model of both resilient and pathological grief, elaborating on the function and place of sadness, distress and depression. These two types of grief are presented as the extremes of a continuum, in between which any number of variations could exist. Sadness, in this model, is depicted as a useful emotion that plays a part in the acceptation of loss and in the creation of a meaning. In its second, empirical part, the subjective experience of sadness in resilient grieving adults who lost a parent is observed. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six participants, and the results were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Results show that sadness was experienced as tolerable, adaptive, and making sense, even if it was painful. As grief is never an isolated experience in life, circumstances and concurrent events, and variations in mentalization abilities, can explain the presence of other emotions or of somatic symptoms. Sadness, however, seems to be an essential ingredient of resilient grief, where the person remains functional, but is sad only by shorts bursts, coming in waves. The clinical and diagnostic implications of these results and of the theoretical model presented in this thesis are discussed.
