초록

본 연구는 공감능력에 따라 정서적 얼굴표정의 미세한 변화를 인식하는 정도와 정서인식의 단서가 되는 안면부위를 확인하고자 하였다. 높은 공감집단(18명)과 낮은 공감집단(18명)을 대상으로, 정서가가 낮은 강도(0%)에서 높은 강도(100%)까지 2%간격으로 몰핑한 세 가지 정서적 얼굴표정(분노, 두려움, 행복) 사진을 순차적으로 제시하여 정서적 얼굴표정이 나타내는 정서를 인식하는 순간에 반응하도록 하였다. 이를 통해 정서적 얼굴표정의 인식 정확성과 민감성을 측정하였으며, 인식의 단서가 되는 안면부위를 안구운동 추적장비를 이용하여 측정하였다. 연구결과, 정서인식의 정확성 분석에서는 높은 공감집단이 낮은 공감집단보다 행복 얼굴표정을 더 정확하게 인식하였으며, 정서인식의 민감성 분석에서는 높은 공감집단과 낮은 공감집단 모두 행복 얼굴표정을 분노나 두려움 얼굴표정보다 더 낮은 강도에서 인식하였다. 안구운동의 경우, 높은 공감집단이 낮은 공감집단보다 행복 얼굴표정에서 입 영역에 시선을 더 자주, 오랫동안 고정시켰다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 높은 공감집단이 행복 얼굴표정을 더 정확하게 인식하였으며, 행복 얼굴표정을 정확하게 인식하기 위해 입과 입주위의 단서를 더 많이 사용하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이 결과를 통해 높은 공감능력을 지닌 사람이 긍정 정서를 더 정확하게 인식하고 긍정 정서를 인식할 때 얼굴의 특징을 더 효율적으로 사용함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Abstract

The goal of this study was to examine the extent to which individuals recognize the facial expressions of increasing intensity and determine which areas of the face stimulates the recognition of emotion by empathy ability using an eye-tracker. The participants who were high empathy group (N=18) and low empathy group (N=18) viewed sequences of pictures of neutral faces (0% expression) that changed to happy, fearful, or angry faces of full-intensity (100% expression). Participants were asked to answer the facial expression as soon as they were able to recognize what it was and were measured eye movements for determining which areas of the face provoke the recognition of emotion. Results showed that the high empathy group recognized happy face more accurately and displayed significantly increased fixations and dwell time on the mouth area in happy face than the low empathy group. The findings of these results suggest that individual with higher empathy ability recognize positive facial expression more accurately and use facial features more efficiently when recognize positive emotional face.
