Affect Detection
• What is a user’s affective state at a specific moment?
![Page 3: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
First note
• It can be done
• You have read a few examples of this– And the D’Mello & Calvo paper cites dozens more
examples
• More sources of data on affect leads to better detection, but it can be done reasonably well even with single data channels
![Page 4: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Today…
• We will focus on the pragmatics of affect detection, rather than the technical details of building sensors, data processing, or detection algorithms
• Though please feel free to bring these types of issues up wherever they seem relevant
![Page 5: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What are the requirements for useful detection for education?
• Example: Must be usable in real-time
![Page 6: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What are the requirements for useful detection for education?
• Must be usable in real-time• Must work with no human intervention
– E.g. must be able to automate segmentation• Must be usable with real student data• Must be generalizable to population and situation of interest• Must be cost-effective• Users must be willing to comply• Breakage must be within affordable limitations• Privacy concerns when researchers use data• Must involve educationally-relevant affect
![Page 7: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
How would we establish each of these?
• Must be usable in real-time• Must work with no human intervention
– E.g. must be able to automate segmentation• Must be usable with real student data• Must be generalizable to population and situation of interest• Must be cost-effective• Users must be willing to comply• Breakage must be within affordable limitations• Privacy concerns when researchers use data• Must involve educationally-relevant affect

Information Used
• In detecting affect, researchers have used– Brainwaves (EEG)– Physiological Response (GSR, EKG, Eye movement)– Tone of voice– Facial expression– Posture/butt sensor– Mouse movements/keystrokes– Interaction features– Dialogue features– Contextual cues
![Page 9: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What educational settings/conditions is each type of sensor feasible for?
• In detecting affect, researchers have used– Brainwaves (EEG)– Physiological Response (GSR, EKG, Eye movement)– Tone of voice– Facial expression– Posture/butt sensor– Mouse movements/keystrokes– Interaction features– Dialogue features– Contextual cues

Ground truth
![Page 11: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Ground truth
• Expert judges• Self-report (in the moment, voluntary)• Self-report (in the moment, interruption)• Self-report (retrospective)
• Advantages/Disadvantages of each? Specific challenges?
![Page 12: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Ground truth
• Periodic ratings of pre-defined time windows?
• Or report of onset of noticeable affective states?
• Advantages? Disadvantages? Specific challenges?
![Page 13: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Ground truth
• For self-report, should you ask about – specific affective states – valence/arousal– valence
• Advantages? Disadvantages? Specific challenges?
![Page 14: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Applications
• Within educational practice, what are some key applications of detecting a person’s affect?
• Within education research, what are some key applications of detecting a person’s affect?

Beyond 1-to-1 interactions
• Historically, affect detection has been applied to data from a single student working 1-on-1 with a computer
• Where else might affection detection be useful in education (or education research)?
![Page 16: Meta-Cognition, Motivation, and Affect PSY504 Spring term, 2011 April 6, 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022072017/56649efe5503460f94c1266e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Settings of use
• Almost all research on affect detection has been conducted in laboratory settings
• What are the limitations of this?
• What are the challenges in conducting affect detection research in ecologically valid settings?
• What can we learn from affect detection and corresponding affect research in laboratory settings, that is still useful for changing educational practice?
