- Abstract
- The study of children's personality and emotional responses is necessary, in that childhood is an important period for formation of their personalities and emotional expression. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between children's personality and psychological responses induced by emotional stimuli. Prior to the experiment, we made parents of 94 children rate personalities of children on Korean Personality Inventory for Children (K-PIC). 64 children without missing answers to all questions were participated in the experiment as participants. They are exposed to emotional stimuli in effectively evoking five emotions (happiness, sadness, anger, boredom, and stress) and then, asked to report the classification and intensity of their experienced emotion. For analysis, they were classified into two groups of the lower 25% and higher 25% scores in twenty sub-scales of K-PIC and psychological responses to five emotional stimuli between two groups were compared. Accuracy of emotion experienced by emotional stimuli showed a significant difference between two groups, the lower and higher scores in Delinquency. Also, there was a significant difference in the intensity of experienced emotions between two groups in Intellectual Screening and Psychosis. We have identified that personality properties such as Delinquency, Intellectual Screening and Psychosis related to accuracy and intensity of emotional responses. This study has provided meaningful guideline for the personality and emotion studies for children having methodological constraint and our results might help to basically and detailed understand and recognize human emotion in HCI.
