Participants considered the word, video, facial expressions and stories associated with certain emotions. Then they informed about the changes in your body, which are then felt. For each emotion researchers created using the computer for two silhouettes - one marked zone with intense bodily sensations, on the other - an area where the sensitivity is reduced. So scientists were able to identify the body responses to different emotions, both positive and negative.

The researchers found a statistically discrete areas for such emotions as happiness, contempt and love are the same for all respondents, regardless of nationality. The researchers tried to reduce the value of metaphors that are common to many languages ​​(for example, the phrase "heart sank 'means grief or heartache).
