I received this picture taken during my poster presentation at #Eurosla34 in Tromsø. I guess my happy face says it all! Eurosla was, as every year, a great conference full of great people doing great research. Thanks @c-labl.bsky.social for the organisation!

What a great keynote by @roberthartsuiker.bsky.social to end #ISB15. Food for thought about what seemed to be an established idea in the field. Time to go back home after an inspiring conference.

The 2DAFS, the tool I developed to collect both continuous and categorical #emotion #perception data, is back up and running on LimeSurvey (after a down period due to a version incompatibility). If you want to use it, it's available here github.com/PernelleL/2D.... #valence #arousal #emotions
Phase 1 of the data collection with the 2DAFS (Two-Dimensional Affect and Feeling Space), a tool to collect continuous valence and arousal perception data and categorical emotion perception data. The image shows the text "How does he feel?" above a two-dimensional space, characterised by a horizontal axis x labelled ‘unpleasant’ at the left and ‘pleasant’ at the right extremity – i.e. the valence dimension – and a vertical axis y labelled ‘calm’ at the bottom and ‘agitated’ at the top extremity – i.e. the arousal dimension. The participant’s cursor, highlighted with a pink dot, can move around in the space and the projection of its position on both dimensions is highlighted with an interactive pointer on each axis – moving simultaneously with and accordingly to the participant’s cursor. Phase 2 of the data collection with the 2DAFS (Two-Dimensional Affect and Feeling Space), a tool allowing to collect continuous valence and arousal perception data and categorical emotion perception data. The image shows the text "How does embarrassed" above a two-dimensional space, in which 36 labels are projected. The 36 labels included in the instrument are: anxious, jealous, hateful, afraid, angry, contemptuous, embarrassed, disgusted, disappointed, tense, depressed, impatient, sad, bored, dull, doubtful, tired, solemn, mesmerised, relaxed, serene, amorous, confident, nostalgic, hopeful, proud, relieved, delighted, amused, ambitious, enthusiastic, astonished, happy, triumphant, surprised, and excited. All labels correspond to adjectives that describe how someone is feeling and they can all fit in the sentence “he feels …”. labels, participants can also click on either “Neutral / No emotion”, or on “Other”. The placement of these labels in the two-dimensional space (x, y) has been determined by valence and arousal ratings of words reported in previous research in English.

📢 Spanish speakers, we need you! (Yes, again.)
We are still on a quest to find adult native Spanish speakers from Spain for our short (15-minute) online study on emotion perception. If you can, please take part or share. Muchas gracias 🙏
