Emotion processing denotes the perception and the application of emotion information. Salovey and Sluyter (1997) suggested that emotion perception has four components: (1) identifying emotions, either through facial affect or vocal prosody; (2) understanding the effect of emotions on performance of different tasks; (3) understanding emotions; and (4) regulation of emotional states of self and others.
Laterality Effects for Higher Cognitive Processes
Published in Robert Miller, Axonal Conduction Time and Human Cerebral Laterality, 2019
Cerebral representation of emotion is a complex subject. A major division of the subject, along basic sensorimotor lines, is between perception and expression of emotion. Most of the next section is about different aspects of emotional perception.
Rehabilitation of Social Cognition Disorders
Published in Barbara A. Wilson, Jill Winegardner, Caroline M. van Heugten, Tamara Ownsworth, Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, 2017
Emotion perception refers to the ability to recognise the emotional states of others based on facial, gestural and prosodic cues. Emotion perception disorders are reported in many clinical populations, including schizophrenia, frontotemporal dementia, unilateral and/or frontal focal lesions and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Problems with the perception of vocal emotion can occur independently from facial recognition and appear to be supported by overlapping but distinct neural pathways.
The effectiveness of metacognitive training on impairments in social cognition in patients with schizophrenia: mental health nursing practice in a community mental health center
Published in Nordic Journal of Psychiatry, 2022
There was no significant difference between the groups in the pre-test mean scores of all tests applied to evaluate the patients' social cognition's core areas in the intervention and control groups (p>.05) (Table 4). According to the pre-test results for the emotion perception area, it was seen that all patients' emotion discrimination skills were at a better level than emotion recognition skills. Studies showing related results in the literature show that this picture is defined as an emotion recognition disorder [54–56]. Although emotion perception is the most studied social cognition area in schizophrenia, the limited effects of treatment programs are similarly repeated [57]. The results are attributed to the disease's nature [58] and acute attacks [59].

Emotion perception refers to the ability to perceive and understand information from facial expressions, emotional prosody, and body posture [1]. Since the late 1990s, it has been recognised that difficulties with emotion perception are a core feature of a wide variety of clinical conditions. These include developmental disorders [2,3] and schizophrenia [4–6] through to acquired disorders such as dementia [7,8] and traumatic brain injury (TBI) [9] both acutely and in the chronic phase [10,11]. Poor emotion perception has been associated with deficits in social functioning in many neurological and psychiatric disorders. For example it predicts poor social interactions and functional outcomes in autism [12,13], schizophrenia spectrum disorders [14–16] and traumatic brain injury (TBI) [17–19].
Self-reported hearing quality of life measures in pediatric cochlear implant recipients with bilateral input

The results of this study show that these children with BCIs and bimodal devices rate their overall hearing QoL similarly to children with a wide range of HL. All HL groups reported more difficulty in hearing-related situations than their age mates with NH. There were no differences in ratings among bilateral device groups (BCIs received simultaneously or sequentially, or bimodal devices). The ability to listen in noise and to recognize vocal emotion were associated with higher HEAR-QL scores. School environments need to accommodate children with HL by reducing ambient noise wherever possible. The link between emotion perception and QoL deserves further study along with methods for improving the extent to which CIs convey cues to spoken emotional content. Future directions should include an exploration of additional factors that may be associated with QoL, such as fatigue, ability to self-advocate and personality. These areas may offer guidance for facilitating function in everyday social and educational settings.
