2018
Wprowadzenie. Indywidualne cechy osobowości każdego człowieka warunkują odmienną reakcję na wiadomość o chorobie nowotworowej, wpływają na wyniki jej leczenia, dalsze rokowanie, a także jakość życia chorego.

The Role of Surface Acting in the Relationship between Job Stressors, General Health and Need for Recovery Based on the Frequency of Interactions at …
2022
The aim of the study was to verify whether the frequency of face-to-face interactions with the public at work can reveal differences in how people react to emotional regulation demands. In particular, we investigated the mediating role of surface acting (a strategy of dealing with emotional dissonance) in the relationship between two typical job stressors (workload and mental load) and two outcomes closely related to work-related well-being: employees’ general health and the need for recovery. Prior studies investigating the detrimental effects of emotional dissonance mostly focused on service workers. However, in light of a survey conducted by the European Agency for Safety and Health at W…
”Lauluja surullisin sävelin elämästä luopumisesta” : musiikki kuoleman ja surun merkityksellistäjänä suomalaisten suremisessa ja siihen liittyvissä r…
2018
Musiikkia on käytetty kuolemaan liittyvissä rituaaleissa läpi ihmiskunnan historian. Musiikin avulla eri yhteisöt eri aikoina ja eri puolilla maailmaa ovat ilmaisseet menetyksen aiheuttamaa surua ja tarjonneet terapeuttista tukea menetyksestä selviämiseen. Monet käyttävät musiikkia säännöllisesti itsesäätelytarkoituksissa ja tunnetyöskentelyn apuvälineenä. Huolimatta siitä, että ihmisten tiedetään hakevan musiikista lohtua erityisesti vaikeiden elämäntilanteiden aikoihin, ei kuolemaan ja suremiseen liittyvää systemaattista musiikkipsykologian tutkimusta ole juurikaan tehty. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella musiikin merkityksiä ja funktioita kuolemaan liittyvissä elämäntilante…
Dog-Owner Relationship, Owner Interpretations and Dog Personality Are Connected with the Emotional Reactivity of Dogs
2022
Simple Summary The relationship between owner and the dog affects the dog's attachment behaviors and stress coping. In turn, the quality of the relationship may affect owner's interpretations about their dog's behavior. Here, we assessed dogs' emotional responses from heart rate variability and behavioral changes during five different situations. Dog owners evaluated the emotion (valence and arousal) of their dog after each situation. We found that both negative and positive incidents provoked signs of emotional arousal in dogs. Owners detected the dog's arousal especially during fear- and stress-evoking situations. The dog-owner relationship did not affect owners' interpretation of dogs' e…
Using altered states of consciousness in improvisational music therapy : the potential of resonance frequency breathing
2018
Improvisational music therapy is a type of creative arts therapy in which clients are encouraged to express themselves through the symbolic and non-verbal medium of music, by creating free music improvisations together with the therapist. The present research aims at investigating whether the efficacy of this method can be further enhanced by purposefully accessing the ego-quieting properties of altered states of consciousness. This work proceeds in three main steps. First, the notions of consciousness and its alteration are examined and reformulated, resulting in a more comprehensive theoretical model. Then, existing methods for inducing altered states of consciousness are evaluated in ter…
Songs Perceived as Relaxing : Musical Features, Lyrics, and Contributing Mechanisms
2020
How we listen to music has been changing rapidly in the last years, with online streaming becoming more predominant. Besides the gain in accessibility for the listeners, the growth of online services also affords easier access to data for musical analyses. A growing body of research has been showing that daily life music listening serves varied functions, from affect regulation to social bonding. More specifically, the reduction of stress responses is quite pertinent in the contemporary world, and recent studies have high-lighted the importance of adequate musical choices. This study aimed to identify the characteristics of music that individuals perceive as favorable to relax and to compar…
Generalizability and Simplicity as Criteria in Feature Selection: Application to Mood Classification in Music
2011
Classification of musical audio signals according to expressed mood or emotion has evident applications to content-based music retrieval in large databases. Wrapper selection is a dimension reduction method that has been proposed for improving classification performance. However, the technique is prone to lead to overfitting of the training data, which decreases the generalizability of the obtained results. We claim that previous attempts to apply wrapper selection in the field of music information retrieval (MIR) have led to disputable conclusions about the used methods due to inadequate analysis frameworks, indicative of overfitting, and biased results. This paper presents a framework bas…
Interactive map interface for controlling bridge crane automation A cognitive-affective approach
2016
This study outlines the development process of a new touch screen based user interface for controlling bridge crane automation in industrial environments. A user study of existing situation (n1 = 11) was used to develop an understanding of the cognitive and emotional design goals for crane operation. Conceptualization of these goals in the context of automation produced a set of requirements, which were used to develop a map-based touch screen user interface. Two field tests (n2 = 5, n3 = 5) revealed how bridge crane operators cognise and emotionally experience the increasing automation and how the user interface should be designed to support the operator’s spatial mental representation as …
Emotional user experience and feeling of control
2015
Current research on emotional user experience lacks a clear exposition on the relationship between feeling of control and the emotion response. The appraisal theory of emotion posits that perceived control over an event is an important factor in determining the emotional response to the event. It is therefore hypothesised, that the relationship between emotional experiences and interaction events is mediated by feeling of control. In an experiment (N = 38), participants used a joystick to control game objects, and gave self-reports of their emotional states and feeling of control. Pathway analyses predicting the factors of emotional experience with event logs reveal that feeling of control …
Appraisal and Mental Contents in Human-Technology Interaction
2015
User experience has become a key concept in investigating human-technology interaction. Therefore it has become essential to consider how user experience can be explicated using psychological concepts. Emotion has been widely considered to be an important dimension of user experience, and one obvious link between modern psychology and the analysis of user experience assumes the analysis of emotion in interaction processes. In this paper, the focus is on the relationship between action types and elicited emotional patterns. In three experiments including N = 40 participants each, it is demonstrated that the types of emotions experienced when people evaluate and use technical artefacts differ…
