Abstract: How should annotation data be processed so that it can best characterize the ground truth of affect? This paper attempts to address this critical question by testing various methods of processing annotation data on their ability to capture phasic elements of skin conductance. Towards this goal the paper introduces a new affect annotation tool, RankTrace, that allows for the annotation of affect in a continuous yet unbounded fashion. RankTrace is tested on first-person annotation lines (traces) of tension elicited from a horror video game. The key findings of the paper suggest that the relative processing of traces via their mean gradient yields the best and most robust predictors of phasic manifestations of skin conductance.
