Standardized Emotion Elicitation Databases (SEEDs) allow studying emotions in laboratory settings by replicating real-life emotions in a controlled environment. The International Affective Pictures System (IAPS), containing 1182 coloured images as stimuli, is arguably the most popular SEED. Since its introduction, multiple countries and cultures have validated this SEED, making its adoption on the study of emotion a worldwide success. For this review, 69 studies were included. Results focus on the discussion of validation processes by combining self-report and physiological data (Skin Conductance Level, Heart Rate Variability and Electroencephalography) and self-report only. Cross-age, cross-cultural and sex differences are discussed. Overall, IAPS is a robust instrument for emotion elicitation around the world.

“…The IAPS identifier codes of these images are made available in the Results section as a starting point of reference to facilitate precise experimental manipulation and comparability across emotion-elicitation studies. Adding to existing categorical data on the IAPS, where complex scenes across thematic contents are treated as homogeneous ( Barke et al, 2011 ; Mikels et al, 2005 ; Moreno et al, 2016 ), the current study presents emotional image groups delineated by whether or not they portrayed human persons. In an experimental context, this will support systematic control to account for the functional distinction between stimuli that convey socially relevant information and those that do not ( Colden et al, 2008 ; Peterman et al, 2015 ; Silva et al, 2017 ).…”

“…Although this observation was incidental to the main aims of the current study, this relative deficiency highlights the importance of better understanding the qualitative features that may make the emotional content of some social scenes less open to dispute. Researchers have previously cautioned that findings from experiments where complex scenes are assigned to emotion-eliciting conditions without procedures to validate their emotional content should be interpreted conservatively ( Barke et al, 2011 ; Moreno et al, 2016 ; Xu et al, 2017 ). Current findings suggest this caveat may apply in particular to social scenes.…”

“…However, while facial expressions of basic emotions are more likely to be categorized homogeneously among healthy individuals ( Wegrzyn, Vogt, Kireclioglu, Schneider, & Kissler, 2017 ), qualitative judgments of the same scene can vary markedly from one person to the next ( Mikels et al, 2005 ). To ensure more precise experimental manipulation, some investigators have highlighted the need for a panel of judges beyond the research team to validate the emotional content of experimental stimuli ( Barke, Stahl, & Kröner-Herwig, 2011 ; Moreno, Quezada, & Antivilo, 2016 ; Xu et al, 2017 ).…”

Abstract. Complex scenes from standardized stimuli databases such as the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) are organized dimensionally rather than discretely. Further, the potentially unique function of socially relevant scenes is often overlooked. This study sought to identify discrete categories of complex scenes from the IAPS and to explore if there were qualitative features that make the emotional content of some social scenes identifiable with higher levels of agreement. One hundred and three participants (53.4% female, mean age 24.4) judged 118 IAPS scenes as reflecting fear, happy, sad, or neutral. A second judgment study was conducted with a separate group of participants ( N = 117; 79.2% female; mean age 30.41) to further characterize valid affective scenes across the full range of basic emotions. Sixty images received agreement on their emotional category from >70% of judges and were considered valid. IAPS identifier codes for these images are available for reference (along with the supplementary material from the second judgment study), organized by emotional and social content. An incidental observation was such that compared to nonsocial scenes, lower agreement rates were observed for social scenes across the board. Qualitative features of social scenes that were classified into emotional categories based on higher levels of agreement are discussed.
