This skill measures an individual's ability to recognize complex emotions while viewing video clips of faces or listening to voice clips of actors portraying each emotion. The full test includes 50 video clips and 50 audio clips. For each clip, you will be given four words, and asked to pick which word best describes the emotion portrayed by the actor. During the test, you can ask for any clip to be repeated or any emotion defined. At the end of the test, you will be given a score, and a chance to review any of the specific emotions portrayed. You can also take a short test (12 videos and 12 audios) or a practice test (two videos and two audios).
The face/video portion of the test requires a device with a display screen. Audio only devices will include the voice/audio portion of the test.
Options: By default, scoring is displayed during the test. To display a running score, say “Scoring On” at any time, or “Scoring Off” to turn off score reporting. By default, answer feedback is provided. To hear answer feedback, say “Answers On” at any time, or “Answers Off” to turn off feedback. After viewing or hearing a clip you can ask for the clip to be repeated by saying “Repeat”. If you need a definition for one of the words, say “Define” followed by the word. At the end of the test, you will be given a list of missed words and definitions to review. To see and hear the clips that demonstrate those words, say “Review” followed by the word.
