A standardized database of Chinese emotional short videos based on age and gender differences.

Most of the existing emotion elicitation databases use the film clips as stimuli and do not take into account the age and gender differences of participants. Considering the short videos have the advantages of short in time, easy to understand and strong emotional appeal, we choose them to construct...

description Most of the existing emotion elicitation databases use the film clips as stimuli and do not take into account the age and gender differences of participants. Considering the short videos have the advantages of short in time, easy to understand and strong emotional appeal, we choose them to construct a standardized database of Chinese emotional short videos by the joint analysis of age and gender differences. Two experiments are performed to establish and validate our database. In the Experiment 1, we selected 240 stimuli from 2700 short videos and analyzed the subjective evaluation results of 360 participants with different ages and genders. As a result, a total of 54 short videos with three categories of emotions were picked out for 6 groups of participants, including the male and female respectively aged in 20-24, 25-29 and 30-34. In the Experiment 2, we recorded the EEG signals and subjective experience scores of 81 participants while watching different video stimuli. Both the results of EEG emotion recognition and subjective evaluation indicate that our database of 54 short videos can achieve better emotion elicitation effects compared with film clips. Furthermore, the targeted delivery of specific short videos has also been verified to be effective, helping the researchers choose appropriate emotional elicitation stimuli for different participants and promoting the study of individual differences in emotion responses.
