- Description
- Emotion is a widely used term in various different fields. The problem is that across and even within those fields scholars are not sharing a common under-standing of it. This strongly counterproductive situation hinders ongoing pro-gress and might even lead to false understandings. This conceptual paper offers a solution and also introduces a method called startle reflex modulation (SRM). It has been described since the late 80s in the human literature and is widely used in emotion research to measure raw affective re-sponses. Meanwhile, besides in the frame of basic science studies it has also been applied to clinical and most recently even industry-relevant topics. It is suggested that SRM does indeed represent a highly valuable new approach to quantify affective processing in the context of NeuroIS (e.g. technology ac-ceptance). Often, self-reported affect differs from objectively measured affect.
