Segregation of information about emotional arousal and valence in horse whinnies

Abstract: Studying vocal correlates of emotions is important to provide a better understanding of the evolution of emotion expression through cross-species comparisons. Emotions are composed of two main dimensions: emotional arousal (calm versus excited) and valence (negative versus positive). These two dimensions could be encoded in different vocal parameters (segregation of information) or in the same parameters, inducing a trade-off between cues indicating emotional arousal and valence. We investigated these two hypo… Show more

“…There are consistencies in the vocal correlates of arousal within livestock species, mostly related to F0 parameters and these seem to be in accordance with changes in behavioural and physiological parameters (Briefer et al, 2015a and2015b). In pigs, arousal was linked with intensity and central F0 in calls (Linhart et al, 2015); in horses arousal was highly correlated with F0 max and F0 start values and energy quartiles (Briefer et al, 2015a) and further in goats, arousal was linked with F0 mean and F0 end values, as well as energy quartiles (Briefer et al, 2015b). It is thus hypothesised that F0 parameters would also increase due to increases in arousal in cattle.…”

“…Vocalisation patterns have specifically been linked to arousal and valence in pigs, goats and horses (Linhart et al, 2015;Briefer et al, 2015a and2015b;Leliveld et al, 2016) with numerous studies relating stress to features of pig vocalisations (Weary et al, 1998;Puppe et al, 2005;Düpjan et al, 2008). Contrarily there is limited research on the vocal correlates of emotion in cattle.…”

“…Positive emotions have been identified as a critical marker for good animal welfare [1], thus investigating methods for recognizing both negative and positive emotional states in animals is essential. In animals, emotional states may be inferred from behaviour [3] including vocalisations [4,5], physiology [6], neurophysiology [7] or cognitive biases [8,9]. Moreover, different emotional states can be expressed through changes in facial expression, as previously shown in human and non-human primate studies [1012].…”

“…Wu and Wang (2011) suggested consumption experience consists of hedonistic and utilitarian elements, but it is emotional appeal that elicits positive or negative emotions. This draws on Morillo's (1990, p. 173) reward effect theory, and a more recent study which defined the two main dimensions of emotion: emotional arousal (calm versus excited) and valence (positive versus negative) (Briefer, Maigrot, Mandel, Freymond, Bachmann, & Hillmann, 2015).…”
