Affect Labeling Task: Assessment of Emotion Identification and Labeling Ability
Evaluates the ability to recognize and label emotions based on facial expressions. This task measures affect labeling accuracy, response time, and emotional granularity.
How It Works in Spica
- View a facial expression
- Select the emotion label that best describes it
- Multiple intensity options
- Time-based response recording
Key Metrics
Accuracy Response Time Labeling Consistency Emotion Granularity Confidence Score
Task Data:
- Response time & selection
- Emotion label chosen
- Timestamp
Face Morph Task: Assessment of Emotion Discrimination and Sensitivity
Evaluates the ability to detect subtle changes in facial expressions by identifying emotions across a morph continuum.
How It Works in Spica
- View a face morph between two emotions
- Identify the dominant emotion
- Adjust intensity in some versions
- Time-based response recording
Key Metrics
Accuracy Discrimination Threshold Sensitivity To Change Response Time Emotion Boundary Recognition
Task Data:
- Morph intensity level
- Threshold detection point
- Response time & Accuracy
