Sumario:The current pilot study focuses on the psychological impact of prosodic structures on the receiver of a message, as indicated by studies on different prosodic structures that have shown a correlation with the emotions expressed by the sender. The study population consists of adults aged between 18 and 45 years. They are divided into two groups: a control group and a group with pathological depression/anxiety based on their scores on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) test. To collect data, protocols are conducted using eye-tracking and electroencephalography (EEG). The eye-tracker protocol consists of two subprotocols, one for anger emotion and another for joy emotion. Participants are presented with 12 slides containing a target and 3 distractors, which lasts for a duration of 3 minutes. The visual stimuli used in the eye-tracker are images from Ekman's facial expression test. The EEG protocol comprises 200 trials, following an oddball protocol. Among these trials, 80% feature neutral prosodic structures, while 20% feature prosodic structures associated with anger or joy. The collected data is then analyzed using a Psychophysiological Analyser of Neuronic to identify biomarkers in auditory evoked potentials. The results of this study are expected to be clinically relevant in the fields of psychology and psychiatry, as well as contribute to the identification of language disorders.
