ABSTRACT
As each person feels emotions differently, web interactive systems may deliver personalized experiences trying to support users to achieve a desired emotional state. A common way of doing so is by providing user interface (UI) adaptation. However, the impact of such adaptations on the users’ emotions is not thoroughly studied. In this work, we describe a mixed factorial experiment with 44 participants in which each one should perform two tasks on the web: reading and transcription. Emotional data was provided by users through a form and also facial expressions via webcam. We represented the users’ emotional paths while performing the tasks and analyzed the most common emotional paths performed by participants. Although most participants reached their desired emotional state in both the experimental and placebo groups, we did not have statistical evidence to prove that users were more likely to achieve the desired emotion while using the adapted UI.

Aesthetic images modulate emotional responses to reading news messages on a small screen: A psychophysiological investigation
Abstract pictures, such as artistic drawings, may evoke subtle emotions in their observers via aesthetic experiences. We examined among 44 participants the emotional responses as measured by facial electromyography (EMG) to aesthetic background images ...
Designing Expressive Lights and In-Situ Motions for Robots to Express Emotions
HAI '18: Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Human-Agent InteractionIn this paper, we explore how a utility robot might express emotions via expressive lights and in-situ motions. In most previous work, methods for either modality were investigated alone, leaving a huge potential to improve the expression of emotions by ...
