Perceiving blocks of emotional pictures and sounds: effects on physiological variables

Abstract: Most studies on physiological effects of emotion-inducing images and sounds examine stimulus locked variables reflecting a state of at most a few seconds. We here aimed to induce longer lasting emotional states using blocks of repetitive visual, auditory, and bimodal stimuli corresponding to specific valence and arousal levels. The duration of these blocks enabled us to reliably measure heart rate variability as a possible indicator of arousal. In addition, heart rate and skin conductance were determined witho… Show more

“…That each phase was only 5 s in duration was a modification of the methodology used with humans where each exposure was 6 s long [27]. This means that only short exposure times to the stimuli were used.…”

“…We were able to increase the duration of the recording from 5 s to 20 s using a novel stitching method. To our knowledge there are four studies that analysed short HRV intervals [27,47,48,49]. While Valenza et al [49] suggested an advanced computerized method to estimate emotions of less than 10 s, we on the other hand propose a non-computerized stitching method as a potential tool to investigate short-time HRV.…”

“…Then it is possible to use only arousal to check the group, e.g. analyzing physiological signal, such as skin conductance [18]. Of course, using many channels will improve the efficiency of emotion recognition.…”

“…The same authors conducted a follow-up study in which they investigated how heart rate and skin conductance measures, both physiological indicators of autonomic nervous system activity [67,299], would respond to mediated social touch from a stranger or an actual touch from a loved one [74]. The same device as in the previous experiment was used: five force-sensitive resistors controlled the intensity of vibration of 5 vibration motors on the output side, while a temperature sensor coupled to a Peltier element made it possible for the person on the output side to feel the temperature of the other person's palm.…”
