title: Enhancing Emotion Recognition through Biological Motion: Socio-Emotional Feedback Enables Generalization and Transfer in Individuals with High Autistic Traits

description: The dataset includes analysis data and program codeThis study aims to explore the application of biological motion emotion training in individuals with high autistic traits. All data included in the experiment are contained within an Excel file, where the subtab titles correspond to the respective sub-experiments: Experiment 1a represents no-feedback training, Experiment 1b represents symbolic feedback training, and Experiment 1c represents socio-emotional feedback training. Each column in the tables is labeled with the corresponding data category. For instance, in Experiment 1a, the first column indicates participant grouping (LAQ for low autistic traits group and HAQ for high autistic traits group), the second column records participant age, and the third column specifies gender (F for female and M for male). Columns four and five display the accuracy rates for the emotion discrimination task of biological motion walking stimuli during pre- and post-test phases, while columns six and seven show the corresponding accuracy rates for biological motion action stimuli. Column eight presents the learning index for the emotion discrimination task of biological motion walking stimuli [learning index = (post-pre)/pre], and column nine provides the same metric for biological motion action stimuli. Columns ten and eleven contain the sensitivity index (d-prime) for the emotion discrimination task of biological motion walking stimuli in pre- and post-test phases, whereas columns twelve and thirteen list the judgment criterion (c) for the same task. Similarly, columns fourteen and fifteen report the d-prime values for biological motion action stimuli, and columns sixteen and seventeen document the corresponding judgment criterion. The remaining tables follow an analogous structure.The experimental code was developed using MATLAB and is stored in the Code folder, with three subfolders - BM_train_no feedback, BM_train_symbolic feedback, and BM_train_socio-emotional feedback - corresponding to the no feedback, symbolic feedback, and socio-emotional feedback training programs respectively, where files sharing identical names serve as the main experimental procedures. WALK_TASK refers to the biological motion walking stimulus emotion discrimination task conducted during pre- and post-test phases, ACTION_TASK represents the biological motion action stimulus emotion discrimination task administered in pre- and post-test phases, FACE_TASK denotes the facial stimulus emotion discrimination task performed during pre- and post-test phases, and MULTIEMOTION_ACTION_TASK indicates the multiple emotion discrimination task for biological motion action stimuli implemented across pre- and post-test phases.
