The Development of Emotion Recognition from Facial Expressions and Non‐Linguistic Vocalizations During Childhood
1 British Journal of Developmental Psychology (2014) © 2014 The British Psychological Society www.wileyonlinelibrary.com The development of emotion recognition from facial expressions and non-linguistic vocalizations during childhood Georgia Chronaki1,2*, Julie A. Hadwin2, Matthew Garner3, Pierre Maurage4 and Edmund J. S. Sonuga-Barke2,5 1Section of Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience, School of Psychological Sciences, University of Manchester, UK 2Developmental Brain-Behaviour Laboratory, Psychology, University of Southampton, UK 3Psychology, Faculty of Social & Human Sciences & Clinical and Experimental Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, University of Southampton, UK 4Laboratory for Experimental Psychopathology, Psychological Sciences Research Institute, Catholic University of Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium 5Department of Experimental Clinical and Health Psychology, Ghent University, Belgium Sensitivity to facial and vocal emotion is fundamental to children’s social competence. Previous research has focused on children’s facial emotion recognition, and few studies have investigated non-linguistic vocal emotion processing in childhood. We compared facial and vocal emotion recognition and processing biases in 4- to 11-year-olds and adults. Eighty-eight 4- to 11-year-olds and 21 adults participated. Participants viewed/listened to faces and voices (angry, happy, and sad) at three intensity levels (50%, 75%, and 100%). Non-linguistic tones were used. For each modality, participants completed an emotion identification task. Accuracy and bias for each emotion and modality were compared across 4- to 5-, 6- to 9- and 10- to 11-year-olds and adults. The results showed that children’s emotion recognition improved with age; preschoolers were less accurate than other groups. Facial emotion recognition reached adult levels by 11 years, whereas vocal emotion recognition continued to develop in late childhood. -

Visual Perception of Facial Emotional Expressions During Saccades
behavioral sciences Article Visual Perception of Facial Emotional Expressions during Saccades Vladimir A. Barabanschikov and Ivan Y. Zherdev * Institute of Experimental Psychology, Moscow State University of Psychology and Education, 29 Sretenka street, Moscow 127051, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-999-829-52-79 Received: 28 October 2019; Accepted: 23 November 2019; Published: 27 November 2019 Abstract: The regularities of visual perception of both complex and ecologically valid objects during extremely short photo expositions are studied. Images of a person experiencing basic emotions were displayed for as low as 14 ms amidst a saccade spanning 10 degrees of visual angle. The observers had a main task to recognize the emotion depicted, and a secondary task to point at the perceived location of the photo on the screen. It is shown that probability of correct recognition of emotion is above chance (0.62), and that it depends on its type. False localizations of stimuli and their compression in the direction of the saccade were also observed. According to the acquired data, complex environmentally valid objects are perceived differently during saccades in comparison to isolated dots, lines or gratings. The rhythmic structure of oculomotor activity (fixation–saccade–fixation) does not violate the continuity of the visual processing. The perceptual genesis of facial expressions does not take place only during gaze fixation, but also during peak speed of rapid eye movements both at the center and in closest proximity of the visual acuity area.

Non-Verbal Language Expressed in Jokowi's Speech

Tel: 62-61-452-2922. E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 17, 2015 Accepted: April 10, 2015 Online Published: May 30, 2015 doi:10.5539/ijel.v5n3p129 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijel.v5n3p129 Abstract Non-verbal communication is one of the key aspects of communication. Non-verbal communication can even alter a verbal message through mimics, gestures and facial expressions, particularly when people do not speak the same language. It is important to know and use non-verbal aspects when we communicate with someone or when we deliver our speech in front of people. The data are taken from some of Jokowi’s speeches. This is a qualitative research, from the recorded data. The speech is identified and analyzed and the writer concludes that Jokowi uses non-verbal aspects in his speech. Five kinds of kinesics are used in everyday communication, namely, emblems, illustrators, affect displays, regulators and adaptors. Some of the aspects make him look so nervous, but he can balance it by laughing or grinning to make the speech not monotonous and attract the audience. He speaks mostly slowly which would make the audience easier to understand the speech. Everybody has their own style in delivering their speech, and this is the Jokowi’s style in delivering his speech. -

The Progression of the Field of Kinesics Megan Waiflein Abstract Kinesics, a term coined by anthropologist Ray Birdwhistell, is the study nonverbal communication. Nonverbal communication is primarily conducted through the use of gestures, facial expressions, and body language. These sometimes subtle cues are estimated to convey as much as seventy percent of the context of a conversation. In this thesis, I review the origin of the field of kinesics in anthropology, the development of subfields, its introduction into other various fields of study, and its significance today. Using citation analysis, I show the movement kinesics through various disciplines. This significant field of research has progressed from a research topic centered in anthropology to a subject studied by psychologists, linguists, and professional speakers. An in-depth examination of the available literature shows the major contributions of kinesics scholarship in anthropology and in other fields. -

PUB TYPE Reports Resea:ch/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Brain Hemisphere Functions; Cognitive Style; Foreign Countries; *Lateral Dominance; Learning Strategies; *Nonverbal Communication; Nonverbal Learning; Second Language Instruction; *Suggestopedia; Teacher Influence; Teaching Methods ABSTRACT Nonverbal communication in the classroom can produce subtle nonverbal influences, particularly in the affective domain. In Suggestopedia, double-planeness (the role of the environment and the personality of the teacher) is considered an important factor in learning. Suggestopedic teachers are trained to use nonverbal gestures in their presentation of the lesson material and pantomime to suggest the meaning of new words in an unknown language. Positive facial expressions, eye contact, and body movement are used to project self-confidence and competence. Verbal and nonverbal behaviors are harmonized so that students receive the same positive message of support and encouragement on both the conscious and unconscious level. Voice qualities of the teacher and environmental factors are also emphasized in the suggestopedic method. Number of students, seating arrangement, wall colors, physical distrAnce between teacher and student(s), and lightingare all considered. Suggestopedia incorporates the main elements of modern, Western nonverbal communication theory, although there is no evidence that its developer, Georgi Lozanov, was influenced by it at the institute in Sofia, Bulgaria. Areas which have a bearing on Lozanov's Suggestopedia and which are discussed are: paralanguage, kinesics, proxemics, environment, and oculesics. (Contains 28 notes and references.)
