The frustration status and noise proof feature during perception of the auditory images

Abstract

Tests for modeling of the human status at recognition of target and non target stimulus with auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) registration; emotional neutral and significant information-psychological influences with EEG registration and analysis of fractal dynamics (AFD) were applied. From the moment of signal presentation the greatest difference of AEPs at target stimulation is marked in frontal areas of the left hemisphere through 16-18 ms. Emotionally-neutral and emotionally-significant psycho-informational influences provided the most conclusive AFD EEG data. Essentially, personal frustration is activated when the subject perceives situations to be threatening to his or her self-esteem and self-evaluation. Individuals with high levels of frustration are inclined to perceive a wide range of situations as threatening and therefore, will respond according to what they think the situation dictates. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
