Abstract
This article investigates the relationship between affect-relevant events that are associated with the workplace of a human agent and the set of emotions that are elicited in the agent in response to those occurred events. The proposed model uses a hybrid appraisal and dimensional approach that strives to deeply analyze emotion triggering events in workplaces and to project their affective impacts onto the three dimensions of evaluation, potency, and activity introduced in the Affect Control Theory. A detailed test-case with a blend of realistic and simulated data was used to verify the performance of the proposed model.
