The study is being conducted by PI Carlos Busso of The University of Texas at Dallas, and it has been approved by The University of Texas at Dallas Institutional Review Board. No deception is involved, and the study involves no more than minimal risk to participants (i.e., the level of risk encountered in daily life).

  • Participation in the study typically takes 30 seconds per video and is strictly anonymous. Participants begin by listening a video, perceiving the emotional content, and annotating the emotional content using questionnaires.

  • All responses are treated as confidential, and in no case will responses from individual participants be identified. Rather, all data will be pooled and published in aggregate form only. Participants should be aware; however, that the experiment is not being run from a \"secure\" https server of the kind typically used to handle credit card transactions, so there is a small possibility that responses could be viewed by unauthorized third parties (e.g., computer hackers).
