| 830 | Research field: Humansensing |
| Morten Aagaard,phd | |
| This years Humansensing seminar documents a growing interest in challenges within an umbrallo entitled “Humansensing” across a number of research fields. What constitutes the field in terms of fundamental theoretical questions, experiences with tools and methods and finally which challenges are investigated. | |
| 845 | Ecological
Momentary Storytelling – bringing down organizational stress through qualifying work-life stories |
| Katja Lund,phd | |
| We have in this user-test examined ways in which a combination of ecological momentary assessments and reflective dialogues can provide a methodological framework for qualifying work-life stories in the process of reducing organizational stress. Focusing on hearing impaired people in the Danish work force as well as primary school teachers, we have used a stress tracking method based on HRV-measurements coupled with mobile questionnaires and reflective dialogues. Findings in the user-test indicated that the method is a tool that creates a story-based foundation on which it is possible to start a process of talking about own experiences, stress and stressors, strategies, contexts etc. when dealing with organizational stress. | |
| 930 | Measuring
Emotion and Gameplay Experience in Real-time with Electroencephalography |
| Tom Garner, ass.professor | |
| This presentation outlines and discusses the data obtained from a recent study into the impact of fear-eliciting sound stimuli upon human EEG within a computer video game context. Participants were required to play a bespoke game level whilst EEG data was collected from an Emotiv EPOC, a commercial-grade EEG headset. Biometric data was synchronised to and assessed alongside: video of player’s facial expression, event-log data and retrospective qualitative data, for affective contextualisation. Results revealed a repeating pattern of EEG response data, suggesting that the Emotiv EPOC may have the potential to automatically recognise player emotion in real-time. | |

| 1030 | Measuring Emotional Experience Elicited by Sound Installations |
| Anders
Bonde, ass.professor |

In my
presentation I will discuss some preliminary results of a joint study on audiences’
emotional experiences with interactive features of media art. The study, which took place at
Zentrum für Kunst und Medientchnologie (ZKM) in Karlsruhe, Germany, centred on
12 sound art installations (compiled under the title ‘The Unheard Avant-gardes in
Scandinavia’), and the object of the study was to find out whether
the possibility of user interaction influences affective response and makes a
difference for the experience. In the study, we used a mixed-method
approach combining psycho-physiological measures, observed behaviour and
self-reporting. 59 people agreed to wear a BodyMedia sensor (measuring galvanic
skin response) while engaging with
the art installations. They were told to move around in their own pace
while we stayed in the background observing at what time they entered each
installation, and at what time they left to enter into a new one. When finished
they were asked to fill out a questionnaire concerning their emotional experience.
We have not yet analyzed the results systematically, though it appears that
there is a connection between level of user interaction and time spent. As for the
sensor data, being a measure
of the electrical conductance of the skin varying in moisture level, which may
indicate shifting states of affect, mood or emotion, it was our hypothesis that
the interactive devices made a
significant difference in that regard. At the present moment, this issue remains to be investigated.

| 1115 | Test experimences evaluating musictherapy sessions with GSR sensor |
| Britta Frederiksen, phd | |
In this presentation I will
present the results of GSR measurements from a pilot study in my phd study. The
phd study is a mixed method case study with the title: “The development of the
therapeutic relationship in music therapy with forensic psychiatric inpatients
with schizophrenia”. I am in the process of evaluating the GSR
measurements and if they can be used in a triangulation of qualitative data in
my phd study.

| 1245 | Can media experience be measured with GSR sensors? |
| Morten Aagaard, phd | |
| At 4.semester humanistic information science at the Department of Communication & Psychology a larger empirical experiment has taken place. 160 students have been exposed to a stimuli material while having measured their GSR value. Futhermore the students were psychographically segmentised. The results of the analysis will be presented and challenges when working with large amounts of data will be presented. | |
