기계가 인간의 감정을 인식하기 위해서는 인간의 감정을 정량적으로 측정할 수 있는 모델이 있어야 한다. 하지만, 인간의 감정은 그 사람이 살아온 환경과 그 사람의 기질에 따라서 같은 자극에 노출되어도 사람마다 느끼는 것이 다르다. 따라서 기계가 인간의 감정을 사람의 기질을 포함하는 개인성향 기반의 감정 모델이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 감정 모델링을 위해 BAS/BIS 가 제안한 개인 성향을 EEG 기반으로 측정 해보고 각 감정 유발 자극 별로 전두엽에서 발생하는 전위를 분석한 결과 각 성향 별로 대뇌 반응이 다르게 나왔다. 이는 인지적 감정이 전이될 때, 성향별로 대뇌에서 다르게 반응 한다는 것을 의미한다.

색채 자극은 인간의 감성에 영향을 주며 또한 색채의 생리적인 작용을 응용하는 연구들이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 색채 자극이 정상인의 생리신호에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 정량적으로 측정해 보고자 하였다. 피검자는 정상인 성인 남,여 각 50명을 실시하였다. 색채 환경의 제시는 암실에서 백색광원에 채색 필터를 사용하여 제시하였다. EEG는 푸른색과 녹색에서 알파파가 상승하였으며, 베타파는 상대적으로 감소하였다. 심전도의 HRV분석에서는 남자는 녹색에서 부교감 신경계가 가장 활성화 되었으며, 여자는 파랑색에서 부교감신경계가 활성화 된 걸 볼 수 있었다. COP 측정에서는 녹색에서 누적거리가 가장 적은 것으로 나타났으나 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았다. 본 실험을 통해 색채 환경이 생리적 신호에 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 임상적 응용을 위해서는 더 많은 피검자와 인지기능에 장애가 있는 환자를 대상으로 계속적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

Objective : The aim of the study was to investigate the application of nonpharmacological cognitive interventions in patients with dementia. Methods : We searched published studies in KISS, PubMed, and Sciencedirect databases from January 2013 to December 2017. The main keywords used were "Dementia" AND "Cognitive stimulation OR Cognitive rehabilitation OR Cognitive training" and a total of ten studies were selected for analysis from 753 searched articles. Results : Seven of the ten selected studies showed significant improvements in cognitive function after intervention, whereas three studies showed no improvement in cognitive function; however, activation of brain waves, improvement in the relationship between care givers and patients, improvement in the quality of life of care givers, and improvements in visual motor skills were shown. Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) was used as the assessment tool for identifying the effects of the cognitive function improvement, and in four studies the quality of life of dementia patients was measured as an intervention effect. The main subject of the cognitive intervention is patients with mild to moderate dementia. Conclusion : The results of this study can be used as a basis for the selection of intervention methods, as well as their duration and assessment, according to the characteristics of dementia patients.

Various perceptual distortions in spatial vision occur during eye movements. Most of the studies on perceptual distortion have focused on the conjunctive eye movements. Recently, Li, Kham, Kim & Yoon (2002) reported that subjects experienced perceptual distortion of 3D slant of an object defined by the spatiotemproal pattern of occlusion. The present research examined whether the subjects experienced the same perceptual distortion in the target object whose luminance is different from that of background. It also examined the effect of the reference on the perceptual distortion of 3D slant of an object.

Uncanny valley refers to the condition where the affinity of a human-like object decreases dramatically if the object becomes extremely similar to human, and has been hypothesized to derive from the cognitive load of categorical conflict against an uncanny object. According to the hypothesis, the present study ran an oddball task consisting of trials each displaying one among a non-human, human and uncanny face, and measured event-related potentials (ERPs) for each trial condition. In Experiment 1, a non-human face was presented in 80% of the trials (standard) whereas a human face for another 10% trials (target) and an uncanny face for the remaining 10% trials (uncanny). Participants' responses were relatively inaccurate and delayed in both the target and uncanny oddball trials, but neither P3 nor N170 component differed across the three trial conditions. Experiment 2 used 3-D rendered realistic faces to increase the degree of categorical conflict, and found the behavioral results were similar to Experiment 1. However, the peak amplitude of N170 of the target and uncanny trials were higher than the standard trials while P3 mean amplitudes for both the target and uncanny trials were comparable but higher than the amplitude for the standard trials. P3 latencies were delayed in the order of the standard, target, and uncanny trials. The changes in N170 and P3 patterns across the experiments appear to arise from the categorical conflict that the uncanny face must be categorized as a non-target according to the oddball-task requirement despite its perceived category of a human face. The observed increase of cognitive load following the added reality to the uncanny face also indicates that the cognitive load, supposedly responsible for the uncanny experience, would depend on the increase of categorical conflict information subsequent to added stimulus complexity.

Researchers have shown the negative compatibility effect (NCE) consistently using arrows. However, they provided inconsistent interpretations about the reason why the NCE happens. The purpose of the present study is to test the factors suggested to be critical for the NCE including automatic inhibition, updated information and top-down control. Presented with arrays of masked prime and targets composed of colored double-headed arrows, participants demonstrated invulnerable NCE on the basis of direction of arrows in the judgment of direction with corresponding hands (Experiment 1), with reverse-mapping hands (Experiment 2) and even in the color-judgment task (Experiment 3). These results imply that the main sources of NCE might be perceptual dominance and inherent properties of stimuli and responses; this contrasts with previously proposed explanations.

This study examined the characteristics of verbal interactions presented in TS activities with different tasks' openness levels by the cognitive levels of students through the implementation of TS program to 14 fifth graders in gifted class. Results of this study revealed that the open-type TS activities showed higher percentages of verbal interactions than the guiding-type TS activities showed and that the higher the open level of tasks was, the more high-level verbal interactions occurred. These results were showed in almost all subcomponents of verbal interactions. The results according to the students' cognitive levels showed that the higher the cognitive level of students was, higher frequency of interactions, high-level verbal interactions and a variety of verbal interactions occurred. The influence of both cognitive level of students and the task's openness on verbal interactions among students seemed to be interactive, however. In guiding-type activities, the percentage of high-level verbal interactions was not high although the cognitive level of students was high. And students in low level of cognition showed far lower frequency of interactions and their percentage of high-level verbal interactions was low even though the openness of the tasks was high. The results of this study meant that although open-type activities drew higher level verbal interactions by stimulating students' thought, the effects would be limited owing to their low cognitive level. Based on these findings, an implication was suggested that it is important to design instructional strategies and adjust openness level of TS activities to students' cognitive level so as to stimulate the thinking of students in lower cognitive level and to highten their engagement in activities.

In this study, under the assumption that there may be differences in colour attributes that can be perceived according to the brightness of the background and the size of the colour stimulus, a test was conducted where colour matching was done for stimulus sizes of $10^{\circ}$ and $20^{\circ}$ in terms of peripheral vision by varying the background brightness. The test results showed that depending on the background brightness and the specific combinations of the Munsell colour attributes used as the test stimulus, colours can be perceived differently even if they are the same colours. In addition, in contrast to findings from previous studies on colour perception according to the stimulus size, it was found that even if the size of the colour stimulus is relatively small, colours can be perceived more colourfully or more brightly with changes in the background brightness. Based on the findings of this study, degradation in image quality can be improved, which may occur when the size of the input image is changed at a later time, and also, contributions can be made when it comes to the reproduction of effective sold three-dimensional structures that reflect visual qualities when processing 3D holographic imagery, in addition to 2D imagery.

Creativity refers to the ability to generate novel and useful ideas. Understanding the mechanism of creativity and its enhancement is important in order to solve major problems of the modern society and to improve the wellness of mankind. Creativity is a highly heterogeneous and complex ability which should not be conceptualized as a single entity. Thus, the current literature on creativity is based on a component process approach to creativity. The present study introduces cognitive neuroscience research studying the mechanism of divergent thinking, insight, relational thinking and artistic creativity which are the major components of creativity. Based on an expansive review, the early hypothesis of hemispheric asymmetry emphasizing the importance of the right as opposed to the left hemisphere is not supported by scientific evidence. In addition, there is no consensus or consistency on which specific brain region is related to a certain component of creativity. In fact, there is a mixture of studies reporting involvement of various brain regions across all four lobes of the brain. This inconsistency in the literature most likely reflects heterogeneity of the component processes of creativity and sensitivity of the neural response to differences across tasks and cognitive strategy. The present study introduces examples of representative studies reporting seminal findings on the neural basis and the enhancement of creativity based on innovative methodology. In addition, we discuss limitations of the current cognitive neuroscience approach to creativity and present directions for future research.
