Create Emotional Statistics

Develop statistical methods that can model, measure, and predict emotional states and their effects on behavior and decision-making. Current statistics treats emotions as noise rather than signal. Emotional statistics would create statistical models of emotion, develop metrics for emotional states, and enable prediction of emotion-driven behavior. This challenge involves affective psychology, behavioral economics, and psychometric theory. Success could enable accurate modeling of human emotional behavior and could improve understanding of how emotions influence decisions and social interactions.
