Andante, Allegro o Silenzio: An Examination of Background Music Tempo on Facial Emotions, Electrodermal Responses, and Reading Task Performance
Current literature has established that learner’s emotions are an integral part of the learning experience (Pekrun Perry, 2014) and have significant effects on learning processes that optimize performance (Cunningham, Dunfield, Stillman, 2013), and attentional responses (Kärner Kögler, 2016). This …

Verification of emotion recognition from facial expression
Analysis of facial expressions is an active topic of research with many potential applications, since the human face plays a significant role in conveying a person's mental state. Due to the practical values it brings, scientists and researchers from different fields such as psychology, finance, …

Difficulty in Facial Emotion Recognition in Children with ADHD
… that children with ADHD have more difficulty in facial emotion recognition, which is processing one's emotion by facial expressions, compared to normal children. This study was designed to investigate the differences in facial emotion recognition between ADHD and normal control. METHODS: Subjects …

Identifying facial landmarks, action units and emotions using deep networks
… Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to predict facial landmarks, facial action units and emotions and to study the results of intermediate experiments while doing so. Learning the different features of facial images has always been a difficult task and primarily involves using hand-crafted …

A functional neuroimaging family study of facial emotion perception in schizophrenia
Deficits in facial emotion perception in schizophrenia may be a vulnerability marker for the disorder. Previous neuroimaging studies investigating these deficits were limited by confounding task demands that may recruit other impaired cognitive processes in schizophrenia. We used a family study …

White Matter Microstructure and Emotional Functioning in Children Treated for Posterior Fossa Tumours
… for PF tumours had difficulty recognizing facial emotions despite attending to the faces, and difficulty regulating their initial attention away from emotional faces. Notably, this eye-tracking measure of emotion regulation was associated with emotional control in daily life. The current …

Teaching Facial Emotion Recognition to Low-Functioning 4-7 Year Old Students with Autism
… This study investigated the development of facial emotion recognition in three individuals aged 4 - 7 years old with Autism Symptom Disorder. It incorporated both objective measures for facial recognition and subjective measures for motivation, time on task, and increased enjoyment of …

Neural correlates of deficits in affect regulation in methamphetamine abusers with and without a history of psychosis
… cognition capacities, including recognising emotions and inferring mental states of others, were diminished in both groups, with greater functional decrements in patients with methamphetamine-associated psychosis. These patients further demonstrated grey matter loss in frontotemporal brain …

Response style differences between left- and right-handed individuals
… showed broadly similar identification of facial emotions, although there were some sex and valence effects. This suggests that the differences in response style were probably not caused by differential lateralised emotional processing (and negative emotional ‘interference’) differences. …

Social cognition in South African children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders
… 9-12 year old children (N = 88) to read people's facial emotions because this more basic level of social cue processing was considered a possible precursor to the impairments seen in Study I. An affective appraisal and working memory (WM) task (1- back and 2-back) was administered. Groups …

Functional brain imaging of facial emotion processing in individuals with intellectual impairments
… the role of autism in the processing of facial emotions in two cohorts – one with special educational needs and one with fragile X syndrome. Particular consideration was given to whether the emerging patterns of activations in any way mirrored those seen in the extant literature and …
