METHOD OF VIDEO-COMPUTER-AIDED DIAGNOSIS OF THE EMOTIONAL STATE OF TRAINEES AND GENERATING DECISIONS ON RATIONAL DIVISION OF EDUCATIONAL GROUPS Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A61B5/00 A61B5/103 

FIELD: psychology.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to psychology, namely to educational psychology, and it can be used to obtain objective data on the process of training, learning of material, cognitive ability of the trainees in process of trainings, with a possibilty of educational groups division into subgroups in accordance with the level of emotional state. Information about the face expression of trainees is fixed by video camera. Individual informative signs of consciously uncontrolled psychophysiological states of each trainee's face expression are detected and recognized, they are compared with identifiers stored in data base in the form of photo sample. Recognized images are classified in accordance with two-dimensional circumplex model of emotion of J. Russell. Complexity of training information is increased in series and discretely n+j, j∈Ν, measuring and memorizing in the memory array physiological parameters of trainees at each n+j level of complexity. Initial set of trainees is divided into the subgroups in accordance with the level of emotional state. Limiting level of learning material complexity n is determined for each subgroup of trainees.

EFFECT: method allows to enhance the quality of training due to consideration of optimal combination of learning material complexity and measurement of psychophysiological parameters, as well as rational division of educational groups into the subgroups in accordance with the level of emotional state.
