Abstract
Film clips are widely used stimuli for emotion elicitation. They bring high level of ecological validity, attention capture and standardization ease into the affective research.
Yet, most of the recommended film clips are unsuitable for Czech participants because of the language barrier. Relevant papers and databases were searched for audiovisual stimuli commonly used as emotion elicitors.
Dubbed versions were found for language dependent films coming predominantly from English and French speaking movies. All films were than validated for use in Czech participants.
Firstly, qualitative methods were employed in order to access participants feelings during clip watching. Secondly, all film clips were validated on Czech sample using newly acquired emotion words and the emotion list used for validation purposes in similar studies.
Additionally, dimensional and continual ratings were measured for selected film clips. The poster will present data from comparison of Czech and original normative ratings in terms of emotional categories and dimensions.
Also, it will demonstrate a new way of measurement of continuous affective response. Such normative data could prove useful for any kind of time related emotion research using film clips as a stimuli.
Our study will supply Czech researchers with high quality audiovisual affective material.
