All senses elicit emotional responses to goods, services, and the environment. They also play an important role in the process of fashion design and its evaluation. This research is a continuation of several preliminary studies we conducted online to define three attractive and three unattractive colors, textures, smells, sounds, and tastes. In the present study, a sample of textile engineering and fashion design students and experts (N=54) assessed four groups of 6 fabric samples (sensory evaluators) selected based on the results of the preliminary studies. Each group of fabrics was assessed in one of four sensory modalities (except taste). Two semantic differentials were used to assess each sensory modality: attractive/unattractive and boring/interesting in the case of color, insensitive/sensitive in the case of texture, disturbing/calming in the case of sound, and cheap/luxurious in the case of smell. We found that among the fabrics in six different colors, the pink fabric was the most attractive. Of the six textures presented, the knitted rib texture was found to be the most attractive to touch. The scent of lemon essential oil was perceived as the most attractive among the six scents used, and the friction sound of suede leather was perceived as the most attractive among the six friction sounds of fabrics. Cluster analysis showed that the attractiveness of scents and colors of six fabric samples was highly differentiated and (almost) each sample was perceived as unique, while the attractiveness of the texture and sound of different samples was less differentiated and the samples were divided into only two groups. This suggests that discrimination of fabric attractiveness may be better in some sensory evaluators/modalities than in others. The results of this study will be useful for further research on the integration of different sensory modalities in fabric perception and garment preferences.

In the last decade, the increasing popularity of neuroscience has involved architecture. Both neuroscientists and architects have endeavoured to understand how the experience of architecture works from the standpoint of cognitive functioning. This has been possible thanks to the neuroimaging techniques such as fMRI and discoveries like mirror neurons. These researches, despite their outstanding quality, are difficult to implement for what concerns the practice of architectural design. However, there is a common ground where architectural theory, phenomenology and neuroscience intersect, represented by empathy, embodiment, and emotion. They are the frame of the awareness of space and the counterpart of the visual perception. The main goal of design is to make the living space but to take a meaning, it has to be the “negative” of the human body. This process comes into existence through “old” tools, i.e. the mentioned empathy, embodiment, and emotion. Still, they can get a new meaning if their traditional hermeneutic is blended with the latest knowledge provided by neurosciences.

The cognitive aspects like perception, problem-solving, thinking, task performance, etc., are immensely influenced by emotions making it necessary to study emotions. The best state of emotion is the positive unexcited state, also known as the HighValence LowArousal (HVLA) state of the emotion. The psychologists endeavour to bring the subjects from a negatively excited state of emotion (Low Valence High Arousal state) to a positive unexcited state of emotion (High Valence Low Arousal state). In the first part of this study, a four-class subject independent emotion classifier was developed with an SVM polynomial classifier using average Event Related Potential (ERP) and differential average ERP attributes. The visually evoked Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals were acquired from 24 subjects. The four-class classification accuracy was 83% using average ERP attributes and 77% using differential average ERP attributes. In the second part of the study, the meditative intervention was applied to 20 subjects who declared themselves negatively excited (in Low Valence High Arousal state of emotion). The EEG signals were acquired before and after the meditative intervention. The four-class subject independent emotion classifier developed in Study 1 correctly classified these 20 subjects to be in a negatively excited state of emotion. After the intervention, 16 subjects self-assessed themselves to be in a positive unexcited (HVLA) state of emotion (which shows the intervention accuracy of 80%). Testing a four-class subject independent emotion classifier on the EEG data acquired after the meditative intervention validated 13 of 16 subjects in a positive unexcited state, yielding an accuracy of 81.3%.

The article examines the way of organizing the means by which it is possible to detect the occurrence of the human factor that has a negative impact on complex technical objects. The system is an organized set of tools for diagnosing the human factor, implemented in the control system and operating in real time. The article develops an approach to the implementation of the human factor diagnosis method, which consists in identifying a dangerous emotional state of a selected person and identifying additional information that causes the activation of the appropriate human factor. In order to fully present the research problem of the work, an analysis of psychophysiological features of the human emotional state was carried out. Tasks, the solution of which is necessary for the model combined with the human factor, were considered. The analyzed model describes the process of functioning of the human factor and proven methods of organizing the process of diagnosing the human factor in technical facilities.

W XVIII wieku Boullée stworzył nową podstawę architektury: jako prawdziwy człowiek rozsądku, zaczął od sedna sprawy, starając się wszystko spoić, tak by zjednoczyć konieczność rozumu z siłą emocji. Oświecenie nie jest jednakże pozytywizmem. W oświeconej myśli, rozum „rozświetla” rzeczy na świecie, pozwalając nam wnikliwie zrozumieć i wywoływać wszystko, co dotyczy ludzkości: zwłaszcza emocje i uczucia. Podobnie jak w przypadku Le Corbusiera, dla Boullée architektura była emocją, zdziwieniem, zaskoczeniem, poznaniem: zjawiskami, które nie pojawiły się racjonalnie, ale instynktownie i emocjonalnie. Nie odbywały się one poprzez dedukcyjne, logiczne lub „pozytywne” myślenie, ale opierały się raczej na analogicznej myśli; rozum był przy tym narzędziem wywołującym emocje przywołane zjawiskami architektonicznymi.

EN

In the 18th century Boullée provided a new foundation for architecture: he began at the root of the matter, aiming to hold everything together, as a true man of reason, to unite the necessity of reason with the power of emotion. Enlightenment is not Positivism, after all. In enlightened thought reason “Iluminates” things in the world, allowing us to deeply understand and produce all that concern humanity: emotions and feelings primarily. For Boullée, too, as for Le Corbusier, architecture was emotion, astonishment, surprise, recognition: phenomena that did not occur rationally, but instinctively and emotionally. They did not took place through deductive, logical or “positive” thinking, but were based rather on analogical thought; whereby reason was the tool that induced emotions evoked by architectural phenomena.

A customer-oriented approach to product development with particular consideration of emotions is represented by Kansei Engineering. Developed by Mitsuo Nagamachi, Kansei Engineering is characterized by the possibility to capture customer perceptions and to translate them into product features. In order to assess these perceptions, a semantic space is generated. For this purpose it is necessary to identify Kansei words that are gathered up through research in marketing concepts, scientific journals and service reports. This procedure though displays the disadvantage of not being able to identify all emotions referring to the investigated product. One way to improve the identification of Kansei words is Repertory Grid. The Repertory Grid technique makes it possible to gather unaltered perceptions through in-depth interviews from the direct interaction with customers. Thus, the interview phase of the Repertory Grid technique offers an improved approach to identify of Kansei words.

Expressing emotions is a very important feature of Visual Speech Synthesis systems. In 1972 the first “basic emotions” list was introduced, by Paul Ekman. Since then few different classifications were published. Most famous “basic emotion” models are briefly described in this paper. In previous publication new Visual Speech Synthesis system for Polish was presented. The system was based on Xface toolkit and “Karol” face model. The aim of this paper is to add “basic emotion” model, according to Paul Ekman’s classification, into “Karol” face model. To achieve this goal new emotional keyframes were proposed. This new functionality of “Karol” face model, allows to generate talking human face animations, which express emotions. The subjective test of new functionality are also included in the paper. The results showed that more information about speakers emotions is read from human face expression than form human speech signal. People can more easily recognize speakers emotion when they see his face expression.

Most probably music, similarly to human speech, represents a biological adaptation [1], and singing is a mode of communication older than speech, present already in ancestors of Homo sapiens [2]. In various species of apes vocal expression has been demonstrated to be linked with expression of emotions [3], which indicates that singing is a carrier of emotional information which in evolution has appeared before formation of Homo sapiens. Hierarchical pattern of processing sound information in human cognitive system [4] allows to assume that singing may induce in the recipient both basic emotions and more complex reactions, linked to altered mood or induction of emotions. Processing of specific musical stimuli evokes specific emotional reactions [5]. Contemporary knowledge on processing of music in the nervous system and evolutionary perspective permit to distinguish such traits of musical course which code data on the type and intensity of emotions. According to the authors, qualitative coding of principal emotions in musical course involves mainly segmental level using physical traits of the sound, such as intensity and timbre of sound while quantitative coding at the suprasegmental level involves mainly changes in tempo and intensity of sounds. In emotional communication conducted through a musical course the shared by the broadcaster and recipient set of culture-specific data on traits of music necessary for its correct processing in specific structures of nervous system, linked to cognitive processes, also plays a significant role. In the study a hierarchical model of singing structure was suggested, which attempts to explain the way in which expression is coded and emotions are perceived in interpersonal communication.

Color is an inseparable element of our lives and is a part of everything we perceive. Colour has a strong impact on our decision making process. Therefore there is a direct connection between the colour and psychological functions. Kansei is a Japanese concept, which abstracts the subjective internal process in the brain, which is activated by external stimuli. Furthermore, Kansei is a function of the brain which integrates sensibility, sense, sensitivity, aesthetics, emotion, affection and intuition. Therefore measuring Kansei is a broader aspect of measuring psychological functioning of the brain. In this research, colour interaction and respective psychological functioning is measured using Kansei measurement method. Further the result of this research was compared with an circumflex model for personality and emotions to recognize the variability of colours in terms of emotional regions. The results indicate that colours have a variable nature and are associated with several different emotions in several different intensities. Colours which have longer wavelengths are more arousing and they generate more psychological functioning than the colours which have shorter wavelengths.

PL

W różnego rodzaju interakcje międzyludzkie wpisane jest zjawisko perswazji. Rozumiane jako przekonywanie jest przede wszystkim argumentacyjnym aspektem relacji społecznych. Przy czym jest to ciąg swoistych aktów argumentacyjnych. Ich wartość osadzona w praktycznej skuteczności zależy od złożoności sytuacji. Stopień osiągnięcia założonego celu powoduje, że w procesie przekonywania do argumentów racjonalnych należą niejednokrotnie wnioskowania logicznie błędne (heurystyki). Ale perswazja realizuje się w konkretnym kontekście psychospołecznym. Dlatego znaczącym dla praktycznie rozumianego procesu przekonywania jest ponadto szereg mechanizmów psychologicznego wpływu wprost lub pośrednio odnoszących się nawet do sfery emocjonalnej.

EN

The phenomenon of persuasion is involved in various kinds of interpersonal interactions. Conceived as the persuasiveness, it is, first of all, an argumentative aspect of social relations. At the same time it is a sequence of specific argumentative acts. Their value, in terms of practical effectiveness depends on the complexity of a situation. The degree of achieving the assumed goal causes that many a time in the process of persuasion among rational arguments there are logically wrong inferences (heuristics). But persuasion is realized in the concrete psychosocial context. Therefore, it is relevant for the practically conceived process of persuasion to include additionally a number of mechanisms of psychological influence directly or indirectly pertaining even to the emotional sphere.
