根据Ekman的模型，基本情绪是愤怒、厌恶、恐惧、快乐、悲伤和惊讶。这些情绪是普遍的，具有适应功能。然而，由于样本量和样本同质性的问题，对中度智力障碍（MID）个体的这些情绪的研究有限。本研究旨在探讨MID组（n = 10）与非MID对照组（n = 10）在以下方面的差异：1)对基本情绪的识别；2)与恐惧、快乐、悲伤、愤怒、厌恶以及中性和性内容相关的图像的生理反应。共使用了来自国际情感图像系统和生物反馈测量系统的29张图像。结果显示，在识别恐惧、悲伤和厌恶等基本情绪方面，没有统计学上的显著差异。然而，与对照组相比，MID个体在快乐（p = 0.008）、愤怒（p = 0.02）和中性图像（p = 0.02）上的差异有统计学意义，而在性内容图像上的差异有统计学意义（p < 0.01）。与对照组相比，MID组的生理反应较低，所有情绪视觉刺激的差异均有统计学意义。这一初步研究为MID的情绪和性研究提供了重要而有趣的结果，未来的研究应考虑样本量、性别和年龄的比较以及不同程度的智力残疾。
According to Ekman's model, the basic emotions are anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise. These emotions are universal and have an adaptative function. However, studies on these emotions among individuals with moderate intellectual disability (MID) are limited, mainly owing to issues in sample size and sample homogeneity. The present study aimed to explore differences between a MID group (n = 10) and a non-MID control group (n = 10) in 1) the identification of basic emotions; and 2) the physiological response with images related to fear, happiness, sadness, anger, and disgust, as well as images with neutral and sexual content. A total of 29 images from The International Affective Picture System and a biofeedback measurement system were used. The results showed no statistically significant differences in the identification of the basic emotions of fear, sadness, and disgust. However, statistically significant differences were found for happiness (p = .008), anger (p = .02), and neutral images (p = .02), and minor statistically significant differences were found for images with sexual content (p < .01) in MID individuals with respect to the control group. The MID group's physiological response was lower compared with the control group, with statistically significant differences for all emotional visual stimuli. This preliminary study showed important and interesting results for the study of emotions and sexuality in MID. Future studies should consider the sample size, sex and age comparisons, and the different levels of intellectual disability.
