“…O material aqui apresentado é resultado de um projeto-piloto, caracterizado como um fragmento de um estudo mais longo 22 , cujo objetivo básico é explorar como idosos normais avaliariam, através de relatos afetivos subjetivos, um volume de imagens carregadas de emoção oriundas do IAPS. Também é de grande interesse uma comparação entre esses relatos subjetivos dos indivíduos idosos com os feitos por jovens no mesmo período.…”

ResumoIntrodução: A literatura científica indica a possibilidade de a percepção da emoção e a formação da memória emocional serem discordantes entre jovens e idosos. A mesma é pobre ao explorar essa possibilidade. Neste estudo, relatamos os resultados obtidos em um experimentopiloto com uma amostra de idosos brasileiros, que classificaram subjetivamente, através da escala Self Assessment Manikin, imagens oriundas do International Affective Picture System. Método: Quarenta e oito idosos voluntários da Universidade Aberta da Terceira Idade, saudáveis clínica e cognitivamente, avaliaram o caráter alertante e a valência afetiva de 71 imagens do International Affective Picture System, aleatoriamente escolhidas. Resultados: O grau de alerta reportado por idosos diante de um estímulo emocional é tanto maior quanto menor o prazer provocado por essa imagem-estímulo, resultando na existência de uma forte correlação negativa (r = 0,93) entre o grau de alerta e o estímulo desprazeroso. Em uma comparação do acima obtido com outro experimento normativo semelhante feito com jovens brasileiros e americanos, apontou-se para uma possível diferença cultural na forma de relatar subjetivamente um estímulo emocional. Conclusões: Os resultados obtidos com esta amostra estudada sugerem que pode existir uma diferença nos relatos afetivos entre os jovens e idosos, onde uma normatização do International Affective Picture System para uma amostra maior, representativa da população de idosos, seria útil para responder esta questão. Descritores: International Affective Picture System, Self Assessment Manikin, idosos, Brasil. AbstractIntroduction: The scientific literature points to a possible bias in the form perception and emotional memory are constructed when elderly and young individuals are compared. However, this possibility is underexplored. This paper presents the results obtained from a pilot study based on an elderly emotional subjective report after evaluation using the International Affective Picture System images and Self Assessment Manikin scale scores. Method: Forty-eight clinically and cognitively capable elderly volunteer subjects from the Third Age Open University evaluated 71 randomly chosen images of the International Affective Picture System in terms of arousal and affective valence. Results: For the elderly, the greater the arousal, the smaller the pleasure resulting in a strong negative correlation (r = 0.93) observed between arousal and negative valence. A comparison with another similar normative experiment performed in young Brazilian and American individuals showed a possible cultural difference in subjective reports of emotional stimuli. Conclusions: This investigation indicates that there may be a difference between elderly and young individuals when affective reports of arousal are studied. A normalization of the International Affective Picture System for the elderly in a larger sample, representative of the population, might be useful to address this issue.

“…Given the cross-cultural differences in emotions, researchers should always carefully consider the reliability and validity of the IAPS before using it in non-U.S. cultures. A few validation studies have been conducted, with results suggesting a fair applicability of the IAPS in some countries, such as Belgium (Verschuere, Crombez, & Koster, 2001), Bosnia and Herzegovina (Dra ce, Efendi c, Kusturica, & Landžo, 2013), Brazil (Lasaitis, Ribeiro, & Bueno, 2008;Porto, 2006;Pôrto, Bertolucci, & Bueno, 2011;Pôrto, Bertolucci, Ribeiro, & Bueno, 2008;Ribeiro, Pompéia, & Bueno, 2005), Chile (Dufey, Fernández, & Mayol, 2011), Germany (Grühn & Scheibe, 2008), Hungary (Deák, Csenski, & Révész, 2010), India (Lohani, Gupta, & Srinivasan, 2013), Lithuania (Ma ciukait_ e, Kuzinas, & Rukš_ enas, 2015), Portugal (Soares et al, 2015), and Spain (Vila, Sanchez, & Ramirez, 2001). However, slight differences were simultaneously detected between US and non-US cultures.…”

The International Affective Picture System (IAPS) is a standardized tool widely used to induce emotions in psychological studies. The present study examined the reliability and validity of the IAPS in Chinese older adults. A sample consisting of 126 Chinese older adults (86 females; aged 67.3 ± 4.96 years; 13.2 ± 2.75 years of education) was recruited to rate valence and arousal for 942 IAPS pictures. The results showed a satisfactory reliability and validity of the IAPS among these participants. The reliability was supported by high internal consistency and low inter-individual variance of participants' ratings; the validity was supported by high similarities (in rating scores and in the distribution of the pictures in the valence-arousal affective space) and small differences (in mean ratings) between Chinese and German older adults. In conclusion, the study adds supportive evidence to the cross-cultural validity of the IAPS in older adults, and provides a set of normative emotional ratings that could be adopted as a criterion in the selection of emotional pictures in future studies engaging Chinese older adults. Comparison of the IAPS ratings across cultures and ages is also discussed.

“…Although in recent years some studies have been conducted in Brazil attempting to elaborate standards for the use of the whole IAPS in different age bands (Abrisqueta, Ueta, Oliveira, Bertolucci, & Bueno, 1998;Fuso, 2003;Gemignani, 2007;Lasaitis, Ribeiro, Freire, & Bueno, 2008;Porto, 2006;Ribeiro, Pompeia, & Bueno, 2004, not all age bands have been contemplated yet. Ribeiro et al, (2004) used this tool in the evaluation of images with emotional content in Brazilian young adults, and according to the authors, the SAM is actually a simple and effective method of reporting affective experiences.…”

Normative studies of the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) have been developed in several countries, observing culturally determined differences, which seem to vary by age group and gender. Brazil has normative data for the seniors and adults; however, pediatric studies are scarce. The objective of the study was to obtain the category ratings for valence and arousal of a set of these images for Brazilian teenagers and check whether its ratings are gender related. In the study, 161 teenagers, aged 12–18 years, categorized valence and arousal dimensions of 180 pictures from the IAPS through the Self-Assessment Manikin instrument. The comparison between genders showed differences in this classification. Teenage girls attributed more valence and less arousal to pleasant images and less valence and more arousal when facing unpleasant figures compared with teenage boys. In addition, both genders expressed their emotions in different intensities but were similar in categorizing this emotionality (as pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral). The IAPS proved to be an effective tool for assessing emotional reactions because the general categorization followed an equivalent pattern observed in previous studies and validated a set of IAPS images for use properly in Brazilian teenagers.
