초록

본 연구의 목적은 최근 심리구성주의 정서이론에서 제안한 얼굴정서 지각 과정에 미치는 언어의 영향을 정신물리학적 방법을 사용하여 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 감정단어가 얼굴표정 전에 제시될 경우, 얼굴표정의 정서 범주에 대한 판단 기준을 그 감정단어가 표상하는 정서 개념 맥락에 가깝게 이동시킬 것이라는 가설을 세웠다. 실험에서는 분노 또는 기쁨을 표현하는 감정단어가 표적 얼굴 전에 잠시 제시되었고, 표적 얼굴로는 중립에서 분노 (실험 1), 중립에서 행복 (실험 2)으로 점진적으로 변화하는 얼굴표정 중 하나가 무선적으로 제시되었다. 실험참가자는 표적 얼굴의 정서를 부논 혹은 중립 (실험 1), 행복 혹은 중립 (실험 2)으로 판단하는 2안 강제선택 과제를 수행하였다. 실험 1 결과, 통제조건과 비교하여 분노 표현 감정단어들은 표적 얼굴정서를 분노로 판단하는 판단 경계 (PSE: the point of subjective equality)를 낮추었고, 행복 표현 감정단어들은 판단 경계를 높였다. 중립-행복 표정을 판단하는 실험 2에서는 반대의 결과가 관찰되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 얼굴정서를 지각하는 과정이 다양한 맥락 정보를 사용하여 능동적으로 구성하는 과정이며, 감정단어들은 정서에 대한 개념적 맥락을 제공함으로써 얼굴정서 지각에 영향을 준다는 구성된 정서 이론의 주장을 지지하는 것으로 해석할 수 있다.

Abstract

Current research explores the effect of language on the perception of facial emotion as suggested by the psychological construction theory of emotion by using a psychophysical method. In this study, we hypothesize that the perception of facial expression may be influenced if the observer is shown an affective word before he/she judges an expression. Moreover, we suggest that his/her understanding of a facial emotion will be in line with the conceptual context that the word denotes. During the two experiments conducted for this project, a control stimulus or words representing either angry or happy emotions were briefly presented to participants before they were shown a target face. These target faces were randomly selected from seven faces that were gradually morphed to show neutral to angry (in Experiment 1) and neutral to happy (in Experiment 2) expressions. The participants were asked to perform a two-alternative forced choice (2AFC) task to judge the emotion of the target face (i.e., decide whether it is angry or neutral, or happy or neutral). The results of Experiment 1 (when compared with the control condition) showed that words denoting anger decreased the point of subjective equality (PSE) for judging the emotion of the target as anger, whereas words denoting happiness increased the PSE. Experiment 2, in which participants had to judge expressions on a scale from happy to neutral, produced a contrasting pattern of results. The outcomes of this study support the claim of the psychological construction theory of emotion that the perception of facial emotion is an active construction process that may be influenced by information (such as affective words) that provide conceptual context.
