To assemble a calibrated set of compassion-eliciting visual stimuli, 60 clinically healthy Mexican volunteers (36 women, 24 men; M age = 27.5 yr., SD = 2.4) assessed 84 pictures selected from the International Affective Picture System catalogue using the dimensions of Valence, Arousal, and Dominance included in the Self-assessment Manikin scale and an additional dimension of Compassion. Pictures showing suffering in social contexts and expressions of sadness elicited similar responses of compassion. The highest compassion response was reported for pictures showing illness and pain. Men and women differed in the intensity but not the quality of the compassionate responses. Compassion included attributes of negative emotions such as displeasure. The quality of the emotional response was not different from that previously reported for samples in the U.S.A., Spain, and Brazil. A set of 28 pictures was selected as high-compassion-evoking images and 28 as null-compassion controls suitable for studies designed to ascertain the neural substrates of this moral emotion.
为了组装一组经过校准的能引发同情的视觉刺激物，60名临床健康的墨西哥志愿者（36名女性，24名男性；平均年龄 = 27.5岁，标准差 = 2.4）使用自我评估人体模型量表中的效价、唤醒度和支配度维度以及一个额外的同情维度，对从国际情感图片系统目录中选出的84张图片进行了评估。展示社会情境中苦难和悲伤表情的图片引发了类似的同情反应。对于展示疾病和疼痛的图片，同情反应最为强烈。男性和女性在同情反应的强度而非质量上存在差异。同情包含诸如不悦等负面情绪的属性。情绪反应的质量与之前在美国、西班牙和巴西样本中所报告的并无不同。一组28张图片被选为高同情心诱发图像，28张作为零同情心对照，适用于旨在确定这种道德情感的神经基础的研究。
