“…The valence generated by an animal is likely to influence our emotional and behavioural responses toward them. For instance, animals such as spiders and snakes are generally negatively evaluated and often evoke an avoidance response [43,44]. In contrast, companion animals, such as dogs and cats, generally induce more positive evaluations and attachments [25,45,46].…”

Simple SummaryWith the general goal of increasing knowledge about how individuals perceive and evaluate different animals, we provide normative data on an extensive set of open-source animal images, spanning a total of 12 biological categories (e.g., mammals, insects, reptiles, arachnids), on 11 evaluative dimensions (e.g., valence, cuteness, capacity to think, acceptability to kill for human consumption). We found that animal evaluations were affected by individual characteristics of the perceiver, particularly gender, diet and companion animal ownership. Moral attitudes towards animals were predominantly predicted by ratings of cuteness, edibility, capacity to feel and familiarity. We hope this free resource may help advance research into the many different ways we relate to animals.AbstractThere has been increasing interest in the study of human-animal relations. This contrasts with the lack of normative resources and materials for research purposes. We present subjective norms for a set of 120 open-source colour images of animals spanning a total of 12 biological categories (e.g., mammals, insects, reptiles, arachnids). Participants (N = 509, 55.2% female, MAge = 28.05, SD = 9.84) were asked to evaluate a randomly selected sub-set of 12 animals on valence, arousal, familiarity, cuteness, dangerousness, edibility, similarity to humans, capacity to think, capacity to feel, acceptability to kill for human consumption and feelings of care and protection. Animal evaluations were affected by individual characteristics of the perceiver, particularly gender, diet and companion animal ownership. Moral attitudes towards animals were predominantly predicted by ratings of cuteness, edibility, capacity to feel and familiarity. The Animal Images Database (Animal.ID) is the largest open-source database of rated images of animals; the stimuli set and item-level data are freely available online.

“…The first stage of the systematic electronic search produced a combined result of 648 articles: 558 from the EBSCOhost database (334 from Academic Search Complete, 187 from PsycINFO, 25 from Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection and 12 from PsycARTICLES), 69 from Scopus and 21 from WoS. Four additional relevant studies were inserted on the data (i.e., Prada and Ricot, 2010;Prada et al, , 2014Brodeur et al, 2014) during the hand search phase. Despite not meeting all the inclusion criteria (some were not written in English) or not being retrieved in the systematic search (i.e., Brodeur et al, 2014), the inclusion of these articles was justified by their reporting of affective dimensions that were not explored in the elected papers (i.e., Prada and Ricot, 2010; valence and arousal examined in or because of the high number of images of common objects included (Brodeur et al, 2014).…”

“…The remaining line-drawing studies used other stimuli created by the authors or selected from other sources (e.g., Ferraro et al, 1998;Duñabeitia et al, 2018). Among the photographs' studies sample, half used stimuli from the BOSS database (7; 50%) and the remaining used variations of common objects as stimuli embedded in contextual scenes (Shao and Stiegert, 2016), modified versions of object images (Prada and Ricot, 2010) and animals with negative valence (Prada et al, 2014). Moreover, two studies produced norms for both line-drawings and colored photographs (O'Sullivan et al, 2012;Saryazdi et al, 2018) comparing norms from Snodgrass and Vanderwart's (1980) and the BOSS (Brodeur et al, 2010(Brodeur et al, , 2014 databases.…”

“…As for the number of stimuli in each database, the 55 studies reviewed ranged from 50 (Prada et al, 2014) to 930 (Brodeur et al, 2014) stimuli. This range was also observed in the 14 studies using only photographs of common objects (Supplementary Material S3).…”

“…Affective dimensions were scarcely reported across studies, with Arousal (n = 1, 1.82%) and Valence (n = 4 out of 55; 7%) being examined but only in real-word photographs of common objects (Prada and Ricot, 2010;Prada et al, , 2014Foroni et al, 2013). However, from those studies only Foroni et al, 2013, was retrieved from the automatic search.…”

A Systematic Review of Normative Studies Using Images of Common Objects

2020

Common objects comprise living and non-living things people interact with in their daily-lives. Images depicting common objects are extensively used in different fields of research and intervention, such as linguistics, psychology, and education. Nevertheless, their adequate use requires the consideration of several factors (e.g., item-differences, cultural-context and confounding correlated variables), and careful validation procedures. The current study presents a systematic review of the available published norms for images of common objects. A systematic search using PRISMA guidelines indicated that despite their extensive use, the production of norms for such stimuli with adult populations is quite limited (N = 55), particularly for more ecological images, such as photos (N = 14). Among the several dimensions in which the items were assessed, the most commonly referred in our sample were familiarity, visual complexity and name agreement, illustrating some consistency across the reported dimensions while also indicating the limited examination of other potentially relevant dimensions for image processing. The lack of normative studies simultaneously examining affective, perceptive and semantic dimensions was also documented. The number of such normative studies has been increasing in the last years and published in relevant peer-reviewed journals. Moreover, their datasets and norms have been complying with current open science practices. Nevertheless, they are still scarcely cited and replicated in different linguistic and cultural contexts. The current study brings important theoretical contributions by characterizing images of common objects stimuli and their culturally-based norms while highlighting several important features that are likely to be relevant for future stimuli selection and evaluative procedures. The systematic scrutiny of these normative studies is likely to stimulate the production of new, robust and contextually-relevant normative datasets and to provide tools for enhancing the quality of future research and intervention.

A investigação em Psicologia requer frequentemente a utilização de materiais de diferentes naturezas como imagens, palavras, sons ou vídeos. Por exemplo, um/a investigador/a interessado/a em implementar uma tarefa de decisão lexical saberá que tem de selecionar um conjunto de estímulos verbais que incluem tanto palavras como sequências de letras que se assemelham a palavras (i.e., pseudo-palavras). Obviamente que o/a investigador/a pode fazer o exercício de listar um conjunto de palavras com base em determinados critérios (e.g., número de letras; classe gramatical como substantivos, como “batata”) e depois criar variações dessas palavras (e.g., substituição ou reorganização de algumas letras, como “batala”, para revisão ver Domingos & Garcia-Marques, 2008).
