| Abstract(in English) | The purpose of this study is to examine whether emotion perception is modulated by the instruction to pay attention to face or voice using basic six emotions, and whether the modality dominance is the same across emotion categories. We used faces and voices which express basic six emotions and orthogonally combined these faces and voices as stimuli. Consequently, the emotional valence of visual and auditory information was either congruent or incongruent. In the experiment, there were unisensory and multisensory sessions. The multisensory session was divided into three blocks according to whether an instruction was given to pay attention to a given modality (face attention, voice attention, and no instruction). Participants judged whether the speaker express from the basic six emotions. Our results revealed that attentional instruction and congruency of the emotions between modalities modulated the modality dominance, and the modality dominance is differed by emotion categories. Analyses also revealed modality dominance suggested by the congruency effect can be explained in terms of the facilitation effect and the interference effect. |
