Book excerpt: Dans le cadre de la psychologie sociale et cognitive, le travail de la présente thèse a pour objectif d'étudier de manière systématique l'influence de la perception d'une expression faciale émotionnelle sur la perception du temps. Pour cela, nous avons utilisé une tâche de bissection temporelle, dans laquelle les adultes et les enfants doivent évaluer la durée de présentation de visages neutres et de visages exprimant des émotions primaires (colère, peur, joie, tristesse et dégoût) ou secondaire (honte). Notre hypothèse est que la perception d'un visage émotionnel provoque une distorsion du temps perçu, dont les variations rendent compte de la fonction adaptative de chaque émotion en termes notamment de préparation à l'action. Les résultats de nos expériences révèlent que les émotions activatrices que sont la colère, la peur, la joie, et la tristesse, provoquent une distorsion temporelle par rapport au visage neutre, dans le sens d'une surestimation. Celle-ci est toutefois plus importante pour la colère et la peur, la préparation à l'action étant plus urgente pour ces deux émotions. Des analyses complémentaires révèlent que cette surestimation est provoquée par un mécanisme d'activation physiologique qui accélère le rythme de l'horloge interne, tel que le "temps interne" va relativement plus vite. Bien qu'étant activatrice, l'émotion de dégoût exprimée sur un visage n'affecte pas, quant à elle, la perception du temps. En revanche, quand il s'agit d'aliments suscitant cette émotion, une sous-estimation du temps est observée, liée à l'observation de l'aliment qui détourne l'attention du traitement de la durée. En fait, nos études montrent que le type de distorsions temporelles observées dépend non seulement de l'émotion évoquée, mais aussi de la nature du stimulus émotionnel et de sa signification. Par ailleurs, pour l'ensemble des émotions primaires, on observe le même type de distorsions temporelles chez des adultes et des enfants d'âges différents, indiquant qu'il s'agit d'un mécanisme adaptatif précoce. En revanche, l'effet de l'émotion secondaire de honte sur la perception du temps varie avec l'âge des enfants. Chez les enfants de 8 ans, comme chez les adultes, cette émotion provoque une sous-estimation temporelle, liée à l'évaluation du soi que déclenche cette émotion, qui du même coup capture l'attention au détriment du traitement de la durée. Chez les enfants de 5 ans, une telle sous-estimation ne s'observe pas, à cause de leurs difficultés à reconnaître ou à comprendre cette expression faciale de honte. Afin de mieux comprendre les processus impliqués dans l'effet des expressions faciales sur la perception du temps, nous avons conduit deux études supplémentaires qui montrent que cet effet est médiatisé par un mécanisme d'imitation automatique des expressions faciales. Enfin, afin de commencer à étudier l'effet sur la perception du temps du sentiment émotionnel lui-même et non seulement de la perception d'un stimulus émotionnel, une dernière étude a été réalisée sur des sujets dépressifs dont le sentiment de tristesse était élevé. Cette étude révèle que la symptômathologie dépressive provoque une sous-estimation temporelle de stimuli neutres, qui serait due à un ralentisssement de l'horloge interne, et dont le sentiment de tristesse est l'un des principaux prédicteurs. En résumé, le présent travail de recherche révèle l'importance du lien entre émotion et perception du temps pour l'adaptation du comportement de l'homme à son environnement social
Book Synopsis Tendances à l'action communiquées par les expressions faciales des émotions by : Anne-Marie Faltacas
Download or read book Tendances à l'action communiquées par les expressions faciales des émotions written by Anne-Marie Faltacas and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bien que le type d'informations communiquées par l'activité motrice du visage ait fait l'objet d'études empiriques, à ce jour peu d'études se sont intéressées à la théorie de Frijda (1986, 2016). Ce dernier soutient que l'expression faciale transmet des renseignements quant au type de comportement que l'émetteur est sur le point de faire et il avance que le récepteur est en mesure d'interpréter les expressions faciales en termes de tendances à l'action. Le principal objectif de cette thèse consistait à examiner la capacité de l'être humain à identifier les tendances à l'action à partir des expressions faciales émotionnelles. Cet objectif a été atteint à l'aide de quatre études. La première étude a utilisé une méthode de jugement à choix forcé afin d'examiner la capacité du récepteur à reconnaître les tendances à l'action. Les résultats de cette étude ont permis de montrer que l'exactitude des jugements était supérieure au hasard et que les participants percevaient plus d'une seule tendance à l'action dans le cas des expressions de surprise et de dégoût. La seconde étude a examiné l'aptitude du récepteur à identifier les tendances à l'action en faisant usage d'une tâche d'étiquetage verbal. Les participants avaient pour consigne de décrire dans leurs propres termes ce que se préparait à faire la personne qui affichait une expression faciale donnée. Les résultats ont montré que les participants avaient tendance à percevoir la tendance à l'action prédite par la théorie de Frijda plus souvent que les autres tendances à l'action. Toutefois, les niveaux de reconnaissance étaient généralement faibles. La troisième étude avait pour objectif d'examiner la reconnaissance des tendances à l'action lorsque l'émotion ressentie par l'encodeur était précisée. Contrairement à notre prédiction, le fait d'indiquer la catégorie de l'émotion exprimée par le visage n'a pas eu pour effet d'améliorer l'exactitude de la reconnaissance des tendances à l'action. Dans la quatrième étude, nous avons vérifié si la présentation d'unités d'action faciale permettait au décodeur de reconnaître les tendances à l'action. La tâche de jugement était similaire à celle de la première étude, mais le matériel facial présenté aux participants était différent. Nous avons sélectionné des unités d'action qui entrent dans la composition des expressions faciales des émotions fondamentales et qui sont spécifiques à chacune d'elles. Les résultats de cette étude ont montré que les participants parvenaient, dans la majorité des cas, à reconnaître les tendances à l'action à partir d'une seule unité d'action.

Book Synopsis The Gestural Communication of Apes and Monkeys by : Josep Call
Download or read book The Gestural Communication of Apes and Monkeys written by Josep Call and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gestural Communication of Apes and Monkeys is an intriguing compilation of naturalistic and experimental research conducted over the course of 20 years on gestural communication in primates, as well as a comparison to what is known about the vocal communication of nonhuman primates. The editors also make systematic comparisons to the gestural communication of prelinguistic and just-linguistic human children. An enlightening exploration unfolds into what may represent the starting point for the evolution of human communication and language. This especially significant read is organized into nine chapters that discuss: *the gestural repertoire of chimpanzees; *gestures in orangutans, subadult gorillas, and siamangs; *gestural communication in Barbary macaques; and *a comparison of the gestures of apes and monkeys. This book will appeal to psychologists, anthropologists, and linguists interested in the evolutionary origins of language and/or gestures, as well as to all primatologists. A CD insert offers video of gestures for each of the species.

Book Synopsis Conceptual Basis, Formalisations and Parameterization of the Stics Crop Model by : Nadine Brisson
Download or read book Conceptual Basis, Formalisations and Parameterization of the Stics Crop Model written by Nadine Brisson and published by Editions Quae. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The STICS crop model has been developed since 1996 at INRA in collaboration with other research and technical institutes. The model syntheses, illustrates and concretizes an important part of the French agronomic knowledge as a point of view on the field and cropping systems working. The formalisations of the STICS crop model presented in this book can be considered as references used in the framework of crop sciences. The book arrangement relies on the way the model designs the crop-soil system functioning, each chapter being devoted to a set of important functions such as growth initiation, yield onset, water uptake, transformation of organic matter etc. One chapter deals with the cropping system and long term simulations and the final chapter is about the involvement of the user in terms of option choices and parameterization. If this book is mainly intended for scientists who use the STICS model, it can also be useful for agronomists, crop modellers, students and technicians looking for elementary formalizations of the crop-soil system functioning.

Book Synopsis Fashionable Nonsense by : Alan Sokal
Download or read book Fashionable Nonsense written by Alan Sokal and published by Picador. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996 physicist Alan Sokal published an essay in Social Text--an influential academic journal of cultural studies--touting the deep similarities between quantum gravitational theory and postmodern philosophy. Soon thereafter, the essay was revealed as a brilliant parody, a catalog of nonsense written in the cutting-edge but impenetrable lingo of postmodern theorists. The event sparked a furious debate in academic circles and made the headlines of newspapers in the U.S. and abroad. In Fashionable Nonsense: Postmodern Intellectuals' Abuse of Science, Sokal and his fellow physicist Jean Bricmont expand from where the hoax left off. In a delightfully witty and clear voice, the two thoughtfully and thoroughly dismantle the pseudo-scientific writings of some of the most fashionable French and American intellectuals. More generally, they challenge the widespread notion that scientific theories are mere "narrations" or social constructions.
Book Synopsis The Hand, an Organ of the Mind by : Zdravko Radman
Download or read book The Hand, an Organ of the Mind written by Zdravko Radman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretical and empirical accounts of the interconnectedness between the manual and the mental suggest that the hand can be understood as a cognitive instrument. Cartesian-inspired dualism enforces a theoretical distinction between the motor and the cognitive and locates the mental exclusively in the head. This collection, focusing on the hand, challenges this dichotomy, offering theoretical and empirical perspectives on the interconnectedness and interdependence of the manual and mental. The contributors explore the possibility that the hand, far from being the merely mechanical executor of preconceived mental plans, possesses its own know-how, enabling "enhanded" beings to navigate the natural, social, and cultural world without engaging propositional thought, consciousness, and deliberation. The contributors consider not only broad philosophical questions—ranging from the nature of embodiment, enaction, and the extended mind to the phenomenology of agency—but also such specific issues as touching, grasping, gesturing, sociality, and simulation. They show that the capacities of the hand include perception (on its own and in association with other modalities), action, (extended) cognition, social interaction, and communication. Taken together, their accounts offer a handbook of cutting-edge research exploring the ways that the manual shapes and reshapes the mental and creates conditions for embodied agents to act in the world.

Book excerpt: On Narcissism: An Introduction is a densely packed essay dealing with ideas that are still being debated today - from the role of narcissism in normal and pathological development and the relationship of narcissism to homosexuality, libido, romantic love, and self-esteem to issues of therapeutic intervention. The contributors place the work in the context of Freud's evolving thinking, point out its innovations, review its problematic aspects, and examine how its theoretical concepts have been elaborated more recently by analysts of diverse theoretic persuasions. In addition, they use Freud's text to chart new developments in psychoanalysis and point toward still unresolved problems. An introduction by Joseph Sandler, Ethel Spector Person, and Peter Fonagy provides a succinct overview of the material.Contributors: Willy Baranger, David Bell, R.

Book Synopsis Darwinian Psychiatry by : Michael McGuire
Download or read book Darwinian Psychiatry written by Michael McGuire and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-04-16 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, psychiatry has operated without a unified theory of behavior; instead, it has spawned a pluralism of approaches--including biomedical, psychoanalytic, behavioral, and sociocultural models--each with radically different explanations for various clinical disorders. In Darwinian Psychiatry, Michael T. McGuire and Alfonso Troisi provide a conceptual framework for integrating many features of prevailing models. Based on Darwinian theory rather than traditional approaches, the book offers clinicians a fundamentally new perspective for looking at the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders. Writing from this innovative theoretical position, the authors discuss the origin of pathological conditions, the adaptation of symptoms and syndromes, the biological basis of social relations, and many other key concepts. This groundbreaking book will introduce those who study and are involved in the alleviation of mental suffering to an approach that will lead to radical changes in clinical practice. The authors suggest that when making diagnostic assessments, psychiatrists should evaluate not only the patients' symptoms but also their functional capacities, and that therapeutic interventions should work toward the achievement of biological goals. Providing an essential framework for understanding both everyday human behavior and a range of mental disorders, Darwinian Psychiatry will appeal to all mental health professionals and general readers interested in human psychology and behavior.
Download or read book Balthus written by Nicholas Fox Weber and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2013-09-25 with total page 1047 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first full-scale biography of one of the most elusive and enigmatic painters of our time -- the self-proclaimed Count Balthus Klossowski de Rola -- whose brilliantly rendered, markedly sexualized portraits, especially of young girls, are among the most memorable images in contemporary art. The story of Balthus's life has been shrouded by contradiction and hearsay, most of it his own invention; over the years he created for himself a persona of mystery, aristocracy, and glamour. Now, in Nicholas Fox Weber's superb biography, Balthus, the man and the artist, stands revealed as never before. He was born in Paris in 1908 to Polish parents. At age twelve he first stepped into the spotlight with the publication of forty of his drawings illustrating a story about a cat by Rainer Maria Rilke, who was then Balthus's mother's lover and a crucial influence on the young boy. From that moment, Balthus has never been out of the public eye. In 1934 his first exhibition, in Paris, stunned the art world. The seven canvases drew attention to his extraordinary technique -- a mix of tradition and imagination informed by the work of Piero della Francesca, Courbet, and Joseph Reinhardt, but unique to the twenty-six-year-old artist -- and to their provocative content; one of the paintings, The Guitar Lesson, was so powerful in its sadomasochistic imagery that it was deemed necessary to remove it from public display. Continuously since then, Balthus's work has provoked both great opprobrium and profound admiration -- as has the artist himself, whether collaborating with Antonin Artaud on his Theater of Cruelty, transforming the Villa Medici into the social center of Fellini's Rome in the 1950s, or competing for the artistic limelight with his friends Picasso and André Derain. The artist's complexities are clarified and his genius understood in a book that derives its particular immediacy from Weber's long and intense conversations with Balthus -- who never previously consented to discuss his life and work with a biographer -- as well as his interviews with the painter's closest friends, members of his family, and many of the subjects of his controversial canvases. Weber's critical and human grasp (he acutely analyzes the paintings in terms of both their aesthetic achievement and what they reveal of their maker's psyche), combined with his rich knowledge of Balthus's life and his insight into the ideas and forces that have helped to shape Balthus's work over the past seven decades, gives us a striking, illuminating portrait of one of the most admired and outrageous artists of our time.
