The Relationship between the Featureof Emotion Recognition and Self-Concept in Alcoholics

Abstract

The primary purpose of this study was to confirm alcoholics' deficit in recognition of emotional facial expression and to investigate alcoholics' feature in process of recognizing others' emotion. In order to achieve this goal, subjects were presented with 22 photographs of the facial expressions showing 6 basic emotions. The emotional facial expression decoding task(participants were asked to identify the emotion which best represents the affect expressed on the face of each photograph) were administered to the subjects. This study also examined alcoholics' bias to misunderstand happiness, sadness, surprise, and fear as anger or contempt in order to investigate the relationship of hostile perception and self-concept. The results of this study were as follows: First, alcoholics had lower scores than normal controls on the emotional facial expression decoding task. Second, the alcoholic's self-concept was more negative than normal subject and alcoholic's hostile perception was higher than normal subject. Third, alcoholic's negative self-concept was correlated with hostile perception on emotional recognition. On the other hand, normal control's negative self-concept was not related to hostile perception bias. These results demonstrate that alcoholics had a problem with the understanding of others' nonverbal emotional information and they had the feature to interpret others' facial expression hostilely. Therefore, intervention is needed on alcoholics' hostile perception bias and negative self-concept in order to manage interpersonal problems which promote relapse.
