| Research Abstract |
In this study, Crying and tears were quantified, then mental and physical changes from shedding tears were investigated. The results indicated that the knowledge of the content of an emotionally arousing movie, or the experience of watching such a movie did not significantly affect the degree of crying. Watching other people cry resulted in emotional responses that were different from smiles, or other expressions. The possibility of measuring the volume of tears using cotton yarn, filter paper, and cotton balls is suggested. Furthermore, changes in physiological responses such as salivary cortisol, heart rate, and blinks were observed.
