78. Emotion and Text: How to Deliver Human Emotion Through the Text Features
SessionPoster Session 1
DescriptionWhile computer-mediated communication (CMC) lacks non-verbal cues for emotive expression, previous studies suggest textual cues can convey emotion. However, prior research lacked a scientific basis to provide a significant relationship between emotion and text features. Therefore, the current study explored how manipulating textual cues affects human emotion and which emotions correspond to different text features by utilizing Kansei Engineering. Two stages of the experiment assessed participants' perceptions of text feature manipulations such as font type, italics, spacing, and letter case. Key findings highlight the effects of various text manipulations, such as font type, italics, spacing, and letter case, on emotions to vibrancy, comfort, harmony, happiness, modernness, and confidence. The results provide insights into how specific text features trigger unique emotional reactions, offering potential applications for enhancing user experiences in text-driven virtual environments.
