“…It is acknowledged that skin conductance is sometimes seen as a measures that only reflects non-specific general arousal (Fuller, 2005), and this could also explain the result. Nonetheless, this provides evidence supporting the notion that general threat increases physiological reactivity (Tomaka et al, 1993;Palomba et al, 2000), and adds to it by suggesting that it can occur when viewing dynamic as well as static stimuli.…”

A Laboratory Study of Behavioural and Physiological Responses to Different Driving Environments.Barnard, M.P*., & Chapman, P. School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, United Kingdom AbstractResearch into anxiety and driving has indicated that those higher in anxiety are potentially more dangerous on the roads. However, simulator findings suggest that conclusions are mixed at best. It is possible that anxiety is becoming confused with fear, which has a focus on more clearly defined sources of threat from the environment, as opposed to the internal, thought-related process associated with anxiety. This research aimed to measure feelings of fear, as well as physiological and attentional reactions to increasing levels of accident risk.Trait anxiety was also measured to see if it interacted with levels of risk or its associated reactions. Participants watched videos of driving scenarios with varying levels of accident risk and had to rate how much fear they would feel if they were the driver of the car, whilst skin conductance, heart rate, and eye movements were recorded. Analysis of the data suggested that perceptions of fear increased with increasing levels of accident risk, and skin conductance reflected this pattern. Eye movements, when considered alongside reaction times, indicated different patterns of performance according to different dangerous situations.These effects were independent of trait anxiety, which was only associated with higher rates of disliking driving and use of maladaptive coping mechanisms on questionnaires. It is concluded that these results could provide useful evidence in support for training-based programs; it may also be beneficial to study trait anxiety within a more immersive driving environment and on a larger scale. 2Keywords: anxiety, fear, emotion, environmental arousal, somatic marker.

“…In general, when normal subjects view valenced images, HR appears to decelerate, with the largest decelerations observed while viewing unpleasant images [17,20,26]. The observed decreases in HR, although not significant, during the unpleasant scenes could be attributed to the fact that HR deceleration is larger during observation of stimuli depicting mutilations, injuries or blood [20,27], as some of the pictures in the current sample did.…”

“…This could be attributed to the fact that the picture presentation was too short to elicit any changes in HR. In the current experiment, only 8 pictures were shown per condition, while other experiments that found differences in HR used larger samples of pictures [25,26].…”

Sometimes, the way in which we interact with products implicitly communicates how we feel. Based on previous studies on how emotions can be detected and communicated via product interaction, we discuss how an interactive product could influence affect by responding and changing behaviors expressing affect. We discuss the proposal of the affective feedback loop in product interaction by its implementation in the prototype of a pen that senses two implicit behaviors related to restlessness, rock and roll. Furthermore, the pen provides inherent feedback, focusing on the perceptual motor skills, as a means to reflect on these behaviors. The pen was evaluated in an experiment, by which we explored whether this type of feedback would influence the emotional experience. Two participant groups were compared, and participants that used the pen with feedback showed a lower heart rate throughout the whole experiment. Because these participants were not aware that the pen provided any feedback, we propose the concept of unaware interaction and discuss what its implications are for design.

“…These researchers also offer different views [9]. However, the existence of affection-specific ANS has gained increasing support from recent studies [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Some affective physiological data sample libraries have been established in the research on affection recognition based on physiological signals (Table 2).…”

Abstract. Affective recognition has emerged in implicit human-computer interaction. Given the physiological signals in the process of affective recognition, the different positions where the physiological signal sensors are installed on the body, along with the daily habits and moods of human beings, influence the affective physiological signals. The scalar product matrix was calculated in this study, based on metric multidimensional scaling witha dissimilarity matrix. Subsequently, the matrix of individual attribute reconstructs was obtained using the principal component factor. The method proposed in this study eliminates day dependence, reduces the effect of time on the physiological signals of the affective state, and improves the accuracy of sentiment classification.
