Outline of Final Research Achievements

(1)The facial expression recognition test for the group carried out in schools using/not using the social and emotional learning (SEL). The results showed that pupils’ ability for an expression recognition in schools using SEL were lower than pupils’ ability in schools not using SEL. (2)We developed an understanding emotions test with scenarios. The results showed that difficulty parameters of an understanding emotion for a character differ depending on the scenario. (3) Experiments with micro expression recognition system indicated that stimulus representation with ensemble perception was valid in the micro expressions recognition test.
