“…The SCL of each participant was recorded at a sample rate of 200 Hz using a BioPack MP100 Data Acquisition System. Skin conductance level is a robust measure of autonomic arousal (Baumgartner, Esslen, and Jancke, 2006;Khalfa, Isabelle, Jean-Pierre, and Manon, 2002;Krumhansl, 1997;Rickard, 2004;Sokhadze, 2007) but it is not sensitive to emotional valence. For example, Khalfa, et al, (2007) showed that increases in SCLs were observed when participants were exposed to either fearful or happy stimuli.…”

Over the last decade consumers have witnessed a dramatic increase in the use of low fidelity, discrete vibrotactile feedback to enhance or replace audio stimuli in entertainment systems. However, use of highresolution continuous vibrotactile displays remains quite uncommon. The Emoti-Chair is a high-resolution continuous vibrotactile display that may be driven by any type of audio signal, and is purported to convey the emotional properties of sound through organized vibrotactile stimulation. In the current study, we examined the ability of the Emoti-Chair to convey the emotional content of the soundtrack in a horror film. Increases in skin conductance levels were observed when vibrotactile stimuli were added to audio/visual film content. These results provide evidence that users can augment the communication of emotion in film through use of a high-resolution continuous vibrotactile display.

“…The data captured the frequency of skin conductance responses (defined as the number of peaks with amplitudes that were !.05 micromohs during the stimulus), a measure that other experiments with the same criterion have linked to levels of arousal (e.g., Kelsey, Ornduff, McCann, & Reiff, 2001;Sigmon, Fink, Rohan, & Hotovy, 1996;Sokhadze, 2007).…”

“…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.…”

A test session consisted of four presentation phases (1 st exposure to stimulus, post exposure, 2 nd exposure, and access to reward). Heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) responses were recorded during testing in the experimental room and also when lying resting in a quiet familiar room. A new method of 'stitching' short periods of HRV data together was used in the analysis. When testing different stimuli, no significant differences were observed in HR and LF:HF ratio (relative power in low frequency (LF) and the high-frequency (HF) range), implying that the sympathetic tone was activated similarly for all the stimuli and may suggest that dogs were in a state of positive arousal. A decrease of HF was associated with the meatball stimulus compared to the food pellet and the reward phase (interacting with the person or eating the food) was associated with a decrease in HF and RMSSD (root mean square of successive differences of inter-beat intervals) compared to the preceding phase (looking at the person or food). This suggests that parasympathetic deactivation is associated with a more positive emotional state in the dog.A similar reduction in HF and RMSSD was found in the test situation compared to the resting situation. This is congruent with the expected autonomic effects related to postural shift i.e. sympathetic activation and parasympathetic withdrawal, during standing versus lying, but it cannot explain the parasympathetic deactivation in response to the more positive stimuli since the dogs were always standing in the test situation. We discuss the systematic pattern of responses, which support that increased HR and LF:HF ratio are associated with emotional arousal, but add the new proposal that a combined decrease in A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT3 RMSSD and HF may reflect a more positively valenced emotional state even when an individual is already in a positive psychological state.
