Abstract(s)
Neste trabalho apresentamos as normas de valência, familiaridade, medo, nojo e perigosidade de um
conjunto de 50 imagens de animais avaliadas por uma amostra total de 78 estudantes universitários.
As 10 categorias de animais foram seleccionadas com base no pressuposto de serem percebidas
negativamente e associadas a emoções como medo ou nojo e representavam animais passíveis de
serem encontrados num contexto doméstico (i.e., abelha, osga, centopeia, rato e barata) ou não
doméstico (i.e., cobra, escorpião, lagarto, morcego e tarântula). Cada imagem foi avaliada por um
mínimo de 38 participantes. Globalmente, os resultados relativos às 10 categorias sugerem que: (a)
todas podem ser classificadas como negativas; (b) sete são percebidas como familiares, associadas a
elevado medo e/ou a elevado nojo, e (c) quatro são percebidas como perigosas. Os resultados das
avaliações das diferentes categorias (e exemplares) são sumariados como normas de suporte a futuras
investigações que requeiram estímulos negativos associados a medo ou nojo.
ABSTRACT: In this paper we present the norms for a set of 50 images of animals that were evaluated by a total sample of 78 college students regarding the following dimensions: valence, familiarity, fear, disgust and dangerousness. Ten categories of animals were selected based on the assumption of their negativity and association to emotions such as fear and disgust and included images of animals likely to be found either in a domestic (i.e., bee, gecko, centipede, mouse and cockroach) or non-domestic context (i.e., snake, scorpion, lizard, bat and tarantula). Each image was evaluated by a minimum of 38 participants. Altogether, results regarding the 10 categories suggest that: (a) all may be classified as negative, (b) seven are perceived as familiar, as associated to high fear and/or disgust and (c) four are perceived as dangerous. Here we present the evaluations obtained by each animal category (and exemplar) in each dimension with the goal of contributing to future research that require the use of negative stimuli associated to fear or disgust.
