About this document
Bodily Maps of Emotions Analysis by Georg Dornhofer is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study reveals distinct bodily sensation maps (BSMs) associated with various emotions using a unique self-report method involving 701 participants. Results show that different emotions correspond to statistically separable BSMs that are consistent across cultures, specifically between West European and East Asian samples. This suggests that emotions are represented in the somatosensory system as culturally universal categorical maps, which may play a significant role in conscious emotional experiences.
