This exploratory study aimed to delineate which (if any) aspects of emotional experience rely critically on either the ventromedial frontal (VMF) or lateral frontal (LF) lobes.

There are two divergent concepts relating to the neural basis of emotional behaviour and experience. One view holds that emotional experience is a by product of neural computations associated with processing of value-laden stimuli.1 An alternative view proposes a specific functional anatomy based on observations that deficits in emotional experience may ensue in patients with specific brain les...

The affective computing approach of artificial intelligence has made it possible for machines to not only think, behave and communicate like humans, but also emote humans. This dimension AI is substituting human capacities due its benefits in diverse spheres life. While studies abound the comparison between terms their cognitive capacities, very few have focused on emotional aspect. study there...

It is assumed that the right hemisphere has a role in processing every kind of emotional word. The objective of the present study was the development of a Persian version of the dichotic emotional word test and evaluate its validation among adult Persian speakers.   Materials and Methods: ...

For the realistic simulation of embodied agents we need a model of emotion that represents both structural and dynamic aspects of emotional phenomena to serve as background support for multifaceted emotion characterization. In this paper we present an emotion model oriented towards that aim, which provides a continuous modeling of the evolution of emotional phenomena. We also illustrate how it ...
