Paper Abstract:      Affect plays a key role in human interactions with computers. It influences critical aspects of success in life, such as learning, decision-making and social interactions. This paper describes an experiment to assess if, how, and when people emote while working with computers in office scenarios. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that addresses this question. For the experiment we continuously recorded 4 people in their work environment for a week, while they worked in their daily tasks with the computer. By the analysis of the recordings, we concluded people do emote while engaged in HCI office scenarios. Afterwards we conducted an online questionnaire where we showed 22 video sequences selected from the previous recordings, and asked the respondents what affective states were being displayed. The respondents clearly labelled 17 videos, 5 for each of the affective states of frustration/stress, fatigue, and interest/concentration, 1 for satisfaction/happiness and 1 for boredom.
