MULTIMEDIATED EMOTION--PHYSIOLOGY, AFFECT AND BEHAVIOR

该项目的目标是评估以下方面的异同 对各种类型的媒体提示的情感和注意力反应-- 图片、声音、文本和电影--在涉及 要么是实际的刺激感知，要么是记忆提取。这 加工过程中注意反应和情感反应的研究 媒体对情感体验的提示将决定1)生理上的， 情感和注意力的行为和言语指数，2)他们 与价格和强度的系统战略参数的关系，3) 与上下文相关的战术任务的反应性变化 需求和刺激属性，4)响应之间的协变 系统，以及5)注意和情感的相互作用/独立性 对每个子系统之间和内部的响应的影响。这个 这个大型、系统的数据库的建设将提供 从两个具体的角度理解情感的基础 实验性诱导(即，使用图片、声音、文本、移动 图像等)和任务(即对记忆的感知)，这可以是 在未来寻求解决具体问题的调查中使用 情绪研究中的问题、人群和问题。此外, 了解涉及情绪处理的机制将是 这种系统化、程序化的方法说明了这一点。

The goal of this project is to assess similarities and differences in affective and attentional responses to various types of media prompts-- pictures, sounds, texts, and films -- in the context of tasks involving either actual stimulus perception or memory retrieval. This investigation of attentional and affective responses in the processing of media prompts to emotional experience will determine 1) physiological, behavioral, and verbal indices of affect and attention, 2) their relationship to system strategic parameters of valence and intensity, 3) variations in reactivity with context-dependent tactical task requirements and stimulus attributes, 4) covariation among response systems, and 5) interaction/independence of attentional and affective influences on responses across and within each subsystem. The construction of this large, systematic data base will provide a foundation for understanding emotion in terms of both specific experimental inductions (i.e., using pictures, sounds, texts, moving images, etc.) and tasks (i.e., perception of memory), which can be utilized in future investigations that seek to address specific questions, populations, and issues in emotion research. In addition, understanding the mechanisms involved in emotional processing will be elucidated by this systematic, programmatic approach.
