Arousal-Valence model
Arousal-Performance curve
Emotions can be mapped using two-dimensional (valencearousal ) scaling to classify the emotion experience. Using such model, four emotions (Fear, Happy, Sad and Calm) can be recognized.
Results Preliminary results of this work showed that memory effectiveness is notably influenced by emotions. The emotion trajectory over valence-arousal map is related to memory effectiveness, which is reflected in subjects response. The highest arousal the highest memory effectiveness . Conclusion Preliminary results of our experiments showed a potential of using electroencephalogram (EEG) in measuring the effectiveness of memory through affect.
