Identifying Psychophysiological Correlates of Boredom and Negative Mood Induced during HCI
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents work conducted towards the automatic recognition of negative emotions like boredom and frustration, induced due to the subject’s loss of interest during HCI. Focus was on the basic pre-requisite for the future development of systems utilizing an “affective loop”, namely effective recognition of the human affective state. Based on the concept of “repetition that causes loss of interest”, an experiment for the monitoring and analysis of biosignals during repetitive HCI tasks was deployed. During this experiment, subjects were asked to play a simple labyrinth-based 3D video game repeatedly, while biosignals from different modalities were monitored. Twenty one different subjects participated in the experiment, allowing for a rich biosignals database to be populated. Statistically significant correlations were identified between features extracted from two of the modalities used in the experiment (ECG and GSR) and the actual affective state of the subjects.

Neural Correlates of Boredom in Music Perception
Introduction: Music can elicit powerful emotional responses, the neural correlates of which have not been properly understood. An important aspect about the quality of any musical piece is its ability to elicit a sense of excitement in the listeners. In this study, we investigated the neural correlates of boredom evoked by music in human subjects. Methods: We used EEG recording in nine sub...

We report new evidence on the emotional, demographic, and situational correlates of boredom from a rich experience sample capturing 1.1 million emotional and time-use reports from 3,867 U.S. adults. Subjects report boredom in 2.8% of the 30-min sampling periods, and 63% of participants report experiencing boredom at least once across the 10-day sampling period. We find that boredom is more like...

متن کاملDifferent psychophysiological and behavioral responses elicited by frustration in pediatric bipolar disorder and severe mood dysregulation.
OBJECTIVE Researchers disagree as to whether irritability is a diagnostic indicator for pediatric mania in bipolar disorder. The authors compared the behavioral and psychophysiological correlates of irritability among children with severe mood dysregulation (i.e., nonepisodic irritability and hyperarousal without episodes of euphoric mood) and narrow-phenotype bipolar disorder (i.e., a history ...
متن کاملPsychological, autonomic, and serotonergic correlates of parasuicide among adolescent girls.
Although parasuicidal behavior in adolescence is poorly understood, evidence suggests that it may be a developmental precursor of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Current theories of both parasuicide and BPD suggest that emotion dysregulation is the primary precipitant of self-injury, which serves to dampen overwhelmingly negative affect. To date, however, no studies have assessed endophe...
