Abstract
As Virtual Reality (VR) is starting to be used to train emotional
regulation strategies, it would be interesting to propose objective techniques to
monitor the emotional reactions of participants during the virtual experience. In
this work, the main goal is to analyze if portable EEG systems are adequate to
monitor brain activity changes caused by the emotional regulation strategies
applied by the participants. The EEG signals captured from subjects that navigate
through a virtual environment designed to induce a negative mood will be
compared between three experimental groups that will receive different
instructions about the emotional regulation strategies to apply. The study will
allow us to validate the possibilities of portable EEG devices to monitor emotional
regulation strategies during VR exposure.
