The fetish for emotions
A large body of literature has shown the intimacy between emotion and cognition.

Are “supraordinate programs” that orchestrate a concerted psychophysiological response to current situations of adaptive significance in our evolutionary past.
(Loewenstein, 2007)

JULIO 21-23
Emotional episode is not a state but a process in time, during which a response is triggered by a certain stimulus. According to appraisal theories of emotion, once a stimulating event occurs, the individual evaluates what the consequences of this event may be and how they may affect his well-being and goals. Immediately after, a response is triggered to adjust to the new situation or to take action to modify it into a more suiting one.

Emotional components
Emotions have been traditionally divided into three main components (the so called‘emotional response triad’ - Scherer 2001): physiological arousal, motor expression, and subjective feeling.

Dimensional approach (Russel, 1980)
JULIO 21-23
There are a few fundamental dimensions that organize emotional responses. The most commonly assumed dimensions are valence, arousal sometimes referred to as activation), and approach–avoidance.
(Davidson, 1999; Lang, Bradley, & Cuthbert, 1997; Russell & Barrett, 1999; Schneirla, 1959; Watson, Wiese, Vaidya,& Tellegen, 1999).

PANAS(Multi-item instrument)
The PANAS (Watson et aI., 1988) was developed as the operationalization of the orthogonal dimensions of positive affect (now called positive activation) and negative affect (now called negative activation) that emerged from the analyses of Zevon and Tellegen (1982) and Watson and Tellegen (1985).

Discrete approach of emotions
The discrete emotions perspective contends that each emotion (e.g., anger, sadness, contempt) corresponds to a unique profile in experience, physiology, and behavior.
(Ekman, 1999; Panksepp, 2007).
![Page 46: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Discrete approach of emotions
The DES instructions ask the respondents to consider the experience they described and to rate how often s/he experienced each emotion item during the experience.
The DES is formulated around ten emotions that are considered to be fundamental by Izard (1992): joy, surprise, anger, disgust, contempt, shame, guilt, fear, interest, and sadness. Each item is administered on a 5-point (never to very often) scale.

Differential Emotions Scale
Self-reports of emotion are likely to be more valid to the extent that they relate to currently experienced emotions.
Even in this case, though, there are concerns that not all individuals are aware of and/or capable of reporting on their momentary emotional states.
![Page 53: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
AUTONOMIC MEASURES OF EMOTION
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a general-purpose physiological system responsible for modulating peripheral functions (Öhman, Hamm, & Hugdahl, 2000). This system consists of sympathetic and parasympathetic branches, which are generally associated with activation and relaxation, respectively.
![Page 54: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

AUTONOMIC MEASURES OF EMOTION
The most commonly assessed indices of ANS activation are based on electrodermal (i.e., sweat gland) or cardiovascular (i.e., blood circulatory system) responses.
Electrodermal responding:
skin conductance level (SCL) short-duration skin conductance responses (SCRs).
Ohm’s LawR = V / I
![Page 56: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
AUTONOMIC MEASURES OF EMOTION
The most commonly used cardiovascular measures include heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP) and heart rate variability (HRV).
For example, SCL predominantly reflect sympathetic activity, HR and BP reflect a combination of sympathetic and parasympathetic activity, and HRV has been closely linked to parasympathetic activity
(Cacioppo, Berntson, Larsen, Poehlmann, & Ito, 2000).
![Page 57: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
AUTONOMIC MEASURES OF EMOTION
Pupillary activity
More recent data have suggested that emotional arousal is akey element in modulating the pupil’s response.
(Lang et al, 2008; Rosa et al 2014, 2015)
![Page 58: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
AUTONOMIC MEASURES OF EMOTION
The pupil is a vegative-sensor. Pupil size at a given moment is the result of the antagonistic balance between the two components of the ANS .
Diameter depends on:
• Amount of light• Cognitive load• Emotions

• A large set of researchers has advocated that the physiological correlates of discrete emotions are likely to be found in the brain rather than in peripheral physiological responses
(Buck, 1999; Izard, 2007; Panksepp, 2007).
BRAIN STATES AS A MEASURE OF EMOTION
![Page 61: Medición de procesos cognitivos y emocionales - Pedro Rosa Phd](https://reader036.vdocuments.co/reader036/viewer/2022062821/589bab191a28ab1d748b4d49/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
EEG
The most common EEG measure of this type is alpha power (8–13 Hz band), which is thought to be inversely related to regional cortical activation
(Allen, Urry, Hitt, & Coan, 2004).

Frontal asymmetry
• Davidson and Henriques (1990) found that greater left-sided activation at baseline predicted more intense experiences of positive than negative emotion.
• Along similar lines, Davidson, Ekman, Saron, Senulis, and Friesen (1990) a greater left-sided frontal activation subsequent to the emotional induction.
• Other sources of data converge on a similar model of frontal asymmetry. Of particular importance are studies that link anger, an unpleasant but approach-related emotion, to greater left-hemispheric activation (Harmon-Jones, 2006).

Neuroimaging studies
• fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) or PET (positron emission tomography) technologies, can locate activation in far more specific brain regions than EEG.
• For this reason, it has been proposed that neuroimaging methods may be better suited than EEG to reveal emotion specificity in the brain (Panksepp, 1998).
• In both technologies, the assumption is that a greater signal reflects greater blood flow to a particular brain region, which in turn is thought to reflect activation of that region.

• Darwin (1965) suggested that emotions serve an evolved communicative function and thus should prime behaviours that reveal one’s emotional state to others.
Vocal characteristics
• The most consistent association reported in the literature is between arousal and vocal pitch, such that higher levels of arousal have been linked to higher-pitched vocal samples
(e.g. Kappas, Hess, & Scherer, 1991)• Emotions such as fear, joy, and anger, pitch is higher than lower arousal
emotions such as sadness.

Facial behaviour
Darwin (1965) reasoned that facial displays are closely tied to the likely behaviour of the organism (e.g., biting in the case of anger, which would result in exposed teeth).
Observer ratings ( Manual FACS)

Electromyography (EMG)
Facial behaviours potentially indicative of emotion can also be assessed with facial EMG, which involves measuring electrical potential from facial muscles via the placement of electrodes on the face.
Corrugator muscle activity decreases linearly with the pleasantness of affective stimuli —responding to stimuli across the full valence spectrum, while zygomatic muscle activity increases linearly with the pleasantness of affective stimuli—responding to pleasant stimuli

EYE tracking
• We move our eyes to particular area of the visual field (foveation).
• This process allow us a detailed information processing.
ATTENTION is closed linked to EMOTION !!!

• Measuring valid data on emotional response has been and remains to be a challenge to emotion research (e.g., Levenson, 1988; Stemmler, 2003).
• It is not possible to infer about a certain emotion only with a single measurement.
• Multimodal recording are needed to assure the robustness of data.
