Area of Science:

  • Interdisciplinary research integrating cognitive psychology, computer science, and biomedical modeling.

Background:

  • Emotion-affected decision making, traditionally a cognitive psychology topic, is now crucial for computer science and biomedical modeling.
  • Existing models lack a robust connection between psychological emotion theories and computational decision-making processes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To bridge the gap between psychology and bioengineering in the domain of emotion-affected decision making.
  • To propose a novel computational model of emotion integrated with decision-making processes.
  • To present an initial framework for this model within a virtual human simulation platform.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing Ortony's theory of emotions and bounded rationality theory as foundational frameworks.
  • Developing a computational model to represent the interplay between emotion and decision making.
  • Implementing the model within the Virtools platform for virtual human simulation.

Main Results:

  • A computational emotion model is proposed, linking emotional processes to decision-making.
  • An initial framework for integrating this model into virtual human simulations has been established.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed computational emotion model offers a novel approach to understanding and simulating emotion-affected decision making.
  • This work lays the groundwork for more realistic and psychologically grounded virtual human simulations in bioengineering and computer science.
