Do nonhuman animals (henceforth, animals) have emotions, and if so, are these similar to ours?

In previous work, we have proposed that there are at least three physically distinct types of smiles associated with specific social functions: reward smiles signal positive affect and reinforce desired behavior, affiliati...... hiện toàn bộ

Giada Lettieri, Giacomo Handjaras, Erika Bucci, Pietro Pietrini, Luca Cecchetti
A wealth of literature suggests the existence of sex differences in how emotions are experienced, recognized, expressed, and regulated. However, to what extent these differences result from the put in place of stereotypes and social rules is still a matter of debate. Literature is an essential cultural institution, a transposition of the social life of people but also of their intimate affective e...... hiện toàn bộ

We aimed to better understand the characteristics of adults’ everyday IER. In this 2-week experience sampling st...... hiện toàn bộ
Colexification Networks Encode Affective MeaningAffective Science - Tập 2 Số 2 - Trang 99-111 - 2021

AbstractColexification is a linguistic phenomenon that occurs when multiple concepts are expressed in a language with the same word. Colexification patterns are frequently used to estimate the meaning similarity between words, but the hypothesis that these are related is still missing direct empirical validation at scale. Here, we show for the first time that words...... hiện toàn bộ

Therefore, the current study tested whether a 2-week online positive psychological intervention delivered during the COVID-19 pandemic, a naturalistic stresso...... hiện toàn bộ
