Exploring the Emotional Landscape: Cutting-Edge Technologies for Emotion Assessment and Elicitation
Emotions are a fundamental aspect of human experience and play a critical role in shaping our perceptions, behaviors, and decisions. For many years, researchers have studied emotions using methods such as self-report questionnaires and behavioral observations. However, traditional methods of emotion assessment have some limitations, such as biased outcomes or subjectivity. In recent years, technological advances have led to the development of new tools and techniques that have the potential to overcome these limitations. For example, wearable devices can provide continuous monitoring of physiological signals, such as heart rate and skin conductance, as well as the electroencephalography is able to record the brain activity. Furthermore, computer vision and machine learning algorithms can analyze facial expressions and body movements to detect emotional states, while augmented and virtual reality environments can provide ecologically valid contexts for emotion elicitation.
Advances on Mechanics, Design Engineering and Manufacturing IV
This book gathers contributions presented at the International Joint Conference on Mechanics, Design Engineering and Advanced Manufacturing (JCM 2022), held on June 1–3, 2022, in Ischia, Italy. It reports on cutting-edge topics in product design and manufacturing, such as industrial methods for integrated product and process design; innovative design; and computer-aided design. Further topics covered include virtual simulation and reverse engineering; additive manufacturing; product manufacturing; engineering methods in medicine and education; representation techniques; and collaborative and soft robotics. The book is organized into five main parts, reflecting the focus and primary themes of the conference. The contributions presented here not only provide researchers, engineers and experts in a range of industrial engineering subfields with extensive information to support their daily work; they are also intended to stimulate new research directions, advanced applications of the methods discussed and future interdisciplinary collaborations.
Design Thinking to Digital Thinking
This book outlines the paradigm shift from design to digital thinking. This book is primarily intended to provide researchers and students an overview of the current state of affairs dealing with design thinking process and its transition to digital era.
Computer Games for Learning
A comprehensive and up-to-date investigation of what research shows about the educational value of computer games for learning. Many strong claims are made for the educational value of computer games, but there is a need for systematic examination of the research evidence that might support such claims. This book fills that need by providing, a comprehensive and up-to-date investigation of what research shows about learning with computer games. Computer Games for Learning describes three genres of game research: the value-added approach, which compares the learning outcomes of students who learn with a base version of a game to those of students who learn with the base version plus an additi...
Measuring User Engagement
User engagement refers to the quality of the user experience that emphasizes the positive aspects of interacting with an online application and, in particular, the desire to use that application longer and repeatedly. User engagement is a key concept in the design of online applications (whether for desktop, tablet or mobile), motivated by the observation that successful applications are not just used, but are engaged with. Users invest time, attention, and emotion in their use of technology, and seek to satisfy pragmatic and hedonic needs. Measurement is critical for evaluating whether online applications are able to successfully engage users, and may inform the design of and use of applica...
Electrodermal Activity
Electrodermal activity is one of the most frequently used psychophysiological evaluations in psychology research. Based on the 1992 edition of this work Electrodermal Activity covers advances in the field since the first publication in 1992. The current volume includes updated information on brain imaging techniques such as PET and fMRI, which provide further insight into the brain mechanisms underlying EDA. In addition, this volume is able to describe more reliably hypotheses that have been successfully tested since the first publication.
Information and Communications for Development 2018
The Information and Communications for Development series looks in depth at how information and communications technologies are affecting economic growth in developing countries. This new report, the fourth in the series, examines the topic of data-driven development, or how better information makes for better policies. The objective is to assist developing-country firms and governments in unlocking the value of the data they hold for better service delivery and decision making and to empower individuals to take more control of their personal data.We are undoubtedly experiencing a data revolution in which our ability to generate, process, and utilize information has been magnified many times...
The Social Fabric of Cities
Bringing together ideas from the fields of sociology, economics, human geography, ethics, political and communications theory, this book deals with some key subjects in urban design: the multidimensional effects of the spatial form of cities, ways of appropriating urban space, and the different material factors involved in the emergence of social life. It puts forward an innovative conceptual framework to reconsider some fundamental features of city-making as a social process: the place of cities in encounters and communications, in the randomness of events and in the repetition of activities that characterise societies. In doing so, it provides fresh analytical tools and theoretical insight...
