This study examined the perception of emotion on object motion factor. Experiment 1 operated change frequency (1, 3, 7), change timing (constant, random) and acceleration (constant velocity, accel, decel, accel & decel). In Experiment 2, we fixed in 7 change times and added the direction of object movement in 8 directions (vertical, horizontal and diagonal). Participants evaluated 6 basic emotions perceived from object movements, additionally in Experiment 2, evaluated the impression for the object movement. As the results, in Experiment 1, the evaluation score for sadness increased in low frequency condition, and the scores for happiness and surprise increased in high frequency condition. In Experiment 2, evaluation scores for happiness and surprise increased with upwards movement condition, and scores for sadness increased with downwards movement condition. These results suggested that the activity of object movement and vertical image scheme were related to the perception of emotion on object movement.
