In a sample of 38 participants that watched 25 affective videos in a virtual reality environment, we found that each of the three variables examined—subjective valence, subjective arousal, and objec
Introduction Remote solutions for timely detection and improved management of mood disorders could positively impact the lives of over one hundred million people in the EU alone and reduce healthcare costs. In 2018, the European Commission reported that a hundred million Europeans were experiencing mental health problems, including anxiety disorders, depression, drug/alcohol use, and bipolar disorder. Associated costs amounted to €600 billion, more than 4% of the EU’s GDP1. This situation was further aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has contributed to an increased prevalence of…
