Maybe I'm being a bit of a jerk but.. yeah?
The suspenseful parts of the story raise your heart rate and the relaxed parts go t'other way
I'd be interested in knowing if this could be used for diagnosing mental disorder things such as sociopathy maybe
- wongarsu 5y agoIt's effectively measuring emotional response to fictional events, which sounds like a plausible way to diagnose a huge range of mental disorders. But if the subject wants to be diagnosed, why not just ask them how something made them feel? And if they don't want to be diagnosed (like you would expect for some sociopaths, pedophiles etc.) this won't help. If a full polygraph can't be proven to work against unwilling suspects, then one fourth of a polygraph won't work either.
- corobo 5y ago> just ask them how something made them feel Fair point. I was trying to throw the study a bone instead of declare it completely useless
- robertlagrant 5y agoI think it'll be good for developing a Voight-Kampff prototype.
