This study investigated the facial and physiological activities that are associated with the emotional state of being moved. We elicited the emotional states of being moved, amusement, attachment, and calmness by presenting participants with film clips; we assessed their electromyographic, electrodermal, and cardiac responses to the films. Further, we used a high- and low-arousal moving film to examine the effect of different levels of arousal on facial and physiological responses to moving films. We compared facial and physiological responses to positive-emotion and emotionally neutral films. Analysis of subjective emotion scale ratings revealed that the films had successfully elicited the target positive emotions and that the high- and low-arousal moving films had elicited the feeling of being moved in accordance with the anticipated level of intensity. In comparison to the other types of positive-emotion films, the two moving films resulted in an increase in corrugator electromyography activity and skin conductance responses, which in turn were modulated by the arousal level of the moving films. However, cardiac measures such as heart rate did not differ across the different film conditions. These results suggest that film clips can elicit different intensities of the emotional state of being moved and that facial muscle and electrodermal activities but not cardiac activity characterize the film-induced emotional state of being moved.
本研究调查了与感动情绪状态相关的面部和生理活动。我们通过向参与者展示电影片段来引发感动、愉悦、依恋和平静等情绪状态；我们评估了他们对电影的肌电图、皮肤电和心脏反应。此外，我们使用一部高唤醒度和一部低唤醒度的感人电影来检验不同唤醒水平对感人电影面部和生理反应的影响。我们比较了对积极情绪电影和情绪中性电影的面部及生理反应。主观情绪量表评分分析表明，这些电影成功引发了目标积极情绪，且高唤醒度和低唤醒度的感人电影按照预期强度引发了感动之情。与其他类型的积极情绪电影相比，这两部感人电影导致皱眉肌肌电图活动和皮肤电导反应增加，而这又受到感人电影唤醒水平的调节。然而，不同电影条件下的心率等心脏指标并无差异。这些结果表明，电影片段能够引发不同强度的感动情绪状态，且面部肌肉和皮肤电活动而非心脏活动是电影引发的感动情绪状态的特征。
