“…Schizophrenia and autism, both psychiatric conditions associated with various forms of midline cerebellar pathology (Heath et al, 1982;Deicken et al, 2001), are also associated with defects in the perception and transmission of emotional information (Ornitz, 1970;Schmahmann, 2000). Our finding of a significant correlation between changes in emotional state and wavelet exponent unique to PIV supports an observation by Shaffer (1981;cited in Wing et al, 2004) that emotions are expressed by intended variations in movement timing (e.g., vocal porosity; musical production; dance: Juslin and Laukka, 2003;Madison, 2000;Manaris et al, 2003) aspects of which display power-laws (Tuller et al, 1997;Voss and Clarke, 1975). Is 1/f-type emotional-motor production variability perceived (Bhattacharya et al, 2001, Jeong et al, 1998 and if so, then does it serve the brain as a neurobiological broad-band carrier wave Teich and Lowen, 1994;Teich et al, 1996) for the reception, translation and retransmission of emotional experience (Jeong et al, 1998)?…”
