Method and system for assessing an altered emotional state

A system, comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• one or more communication interfaces;
• and
• one or more hardware processors coupled to the memory via the one or more communication interfaces, wherein the one or more hardware processors are configured by the instructions to:
• receive a first self-reported emotional state of a subject by exposing the subject to a semiotic instrument, wherein the semiotic instrument comprises a plurality non-verbal cues expressing a plurality of emotions, and wherein each non-verbal cue of the plurality of non-verbal cues is coupled with a strength indicator;
• process the first self-reported emotional state of the subject using a pre-defined metric to generate a first semiotic score of the subject;
• obtain a first cognitive score of the subject by processing interactive response of the subject to at least one cognitive instrument;
• assess a pre-emotional state of the subject based by aggregating the first semiotic score and the first cognitive score;
• stimulate at least one of a plurality of senses of the subject with a sensory input that triggers the subject to experience a state of emotional variability;
• receive a second self-reported emotional state of the subject by exposing the subject to the semiotic instrument;
• process the second self-reported emotional state of the subject using the pre-defined metric to generate a second semiotic score of the subject;
• obtain a second cognitive score of the subject by processing interactive response of the subject to at least one cognitive instrument;
• assess a post-emotional state of the subject by aggregating the second semiotic score and the second cognitive score;
• and
• estimate an altered emotional state of the subject by obtaining a vector difference between the pre-emotional state and the post-emotional state.

One or more non-transitory machine-readable information storage mediums comprising one or more instructions which when executed by one or more hardware processors cause:

• receiving a first self-reported emotional state of a subject by exposing the subject to a semiotic instrument, wherein the semiotic instrument comprises a plurality non-verbal cues expressing a plurality of emotions, and wherein each non-verbal cue of the plurality of non-verbal cues is coupled with a strength indicator;
• processing the first self-reported emotional state of the subject using a pre-defined metric to generate a first semiotic score of the subject;
• obtaining a first cognitive score of the subject by processing interactive response of the subject to at least one cognitive instrument;
• assessing a pre-emotional state of the subject based by aggregating the first semiotic score and the first cognitive score;
• stimulating at least one of a plurality of senses of the subject with a sensory input that triggers the subject to experience a state of emotional variability;
• receiving a second self-reported emotional state of the subject by exposing the subject to the semiotic instrument;
• processing the second self-reported emotional state of the subject using the pre-defined metric to generate a second semiotic score of the subject;
• obtaining a second cognitive score of the subject by processing interactive response of the subject to at least one cognitive instrument;
• assessing a post-emotional state of the subject by aggregating the second semiotic score and the second cognitive score;
• and
• estimating an altered emotional state of the subject by obtaining a vector difference between the pre-emotional state and the post-emotional state.
