“…Facial mimicry is strongly associated with affective empathy (Sonnby-Borgstrom, 2002;Sonnby-Borgstrom, Jonsson, & Svensson, 2003), to the extent that mimicry has been proposed to reflect affective empathy (Dimberg, Andreasson, & Thunberg, 2011). This is consistent with typical conceptualisations of affective empathy, specifically, that it reflects emotional responsivity rather than emotion recognition or expression per se (Decety, 2010;Rankin, Kramer, & Miller, 2005).…”

“…All participants were administered the two-subtest format (Vocabulary and Matrix Reasoning), allowing for a measure of full-scale IQ (FSIQ). In adults, the WASI two-subtest FSIQ correlates .87 with the WAIS FSIQ (Strauss, Sherman, & Spreen, 2006), Administration and scoring were completed by a trained clinician (Intern Clinical Psychologist).…”

“…There is evidence that expression of nonverbal behavior associated with affective communication can cause experience of the relevant affect [62][63][64]. Moreover, the "motor mimicry" theory states that people catch others' feeling by unintentionally imitating others' expressions [17,65,66]. Thus, the imitation game task context of our study may have enhanced the mood contagion.…”

The aim of our work is to design bodily mood expressions of humanoid robots for interactive settings that can be recognized by users and have (positive) effects on people who interact with the robots. To this end, we develop a parameterized behavior model for humanoid robots to express mood through body language. Different settings of the parameters, which control the spatial extent and motion dynamics of a behavior, result in different behavior appearances expressing different moods. In this study, we applied the behavior model to the gestures of the imitation game performed by the NAO robot to display either a positive or a negative mood. We address the question whether robot mood displayed simultaneously with the execution of functional behaviors in a task can (a) be recognized by participants and (b) produce contagion effects. Mood contagion is an automatic mechanism that induces a congruent mood state by means of the observation of another person's emotional expression. In addition, we varied task difficulty to investigate how the task load mediates the effects. Our results show that participants are able to differentiate between positive and negative robot mood and they are able to recognize the behavioral cues (the parameters) we manipulated. Moreover, self-reported mood matches the mood expressed by the robot in the easy task condition. Additional evidence for mood contagion is provided by the fact that we were able to replicate an expected effect of negative mood on task performance: in the negative mood condition participants performed better on difficult tasks than in the positive mood condition, even though participants' self-reported mood did not match that of the robot.

“…In a later study by Sonnby-Borgström, Jönsson, and Svensson (2003), the researchers again investigated the association between empathy and mimicry at differing processing levels. Similar to the previous study participants were exposed to four happy and angry faces with a neutral image in between (Ekman & Friesen, 1975b).…”
