以情绪感受为基础的音乐情绪资料库

A Felt-Emotion-Based Corpora of Music Emotions

本研究负责「台湾地区华人情绪与相关生物行为资料库」当中的音乐刺激与音乐情绪资料库的建制，包含以下几个研究目标：（一）建立一套以经验的情绪为本的音乐情绪刺激资料库；（二）探讨台湾地区聆听者音乐情绪空间的范围；（三）比较不同学龄层聆听者的情绪空间差异。本资料库以排除非音乐因素之干扰的原则，选取240首乐曲之片段作为刺激，在20种情绪类别上调查国中、高中、大学三个学龄层，总共4,799位参与者的感受情绪。所有学龄层的反应都呈现正面情绪大於负面情绪的趋势，若干负面情绪类别则似乎无法透过音乐获得。国中生与其他两组族群的情绪反应型态具有显着差异，对於阴暗的情绪较不敏感。本研究所使用的材料以及感受情绪的反应资料，均可在本资料库中以「乐曲为中心」或以「情绪类别为中心」的方式检索。

This research is a part of the 'Taiwan Corpora of Chinese Emotions and Biobehavioral Data' project, aiming for building a music emotion corpora that centers on the felt, rather than the perceived emotions of Taiwan residents listeners. The scope of this research includes: (1) constructing a database of emotion-triggering music stimuli, and the felt emotions of the listeners; (2) inspecting the emotion spectrum induced by music; (3) evaluating the differences in music emotions across three age groups. Non-musical factors were carefully controlled in the selection of 240 music clips. Felt emotions of the listeners were measured on 20 emotion categories. A total of 4,799 participants from middle high, high school, and university age group were recruited in this study. Participants of all groups tend to report more positive emotions than the negative. Some specific negative emotions cannot be induced by music. The responses of middle high school students are different from that of the high school and university students, being weaker in amplitude, and less sensitive to darker emotions. All experimental materials and response data can be retrieved in either music-centered, or emotion-category-centered search mode, and are open to the research community.
