The article explores the fascinating world of chills and the emotional response they elicit in individuals.

In an effort lead by Dr. Felix Schoeller at IACS, and in collaboration with the MIT Media Lab, and the Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Centre, researchers have created a database of stimuli that have the potential to induce chills. The stimuli include music, film, and speech, and were compiled from social media platforms such as YouTube and Reddit.

We chose the top 50 videos from the database and randomly introduced them to over 600 participants on a crowdsourcing platform. The results showed that participants who experienced chills reported significantly more positive emotional valence and greater arousal during the experience, compared to those who did not experience chills.

We believe that understanding the emotional consequences of chills can help guide mental health interventions. They are exploring the option of using chills as a novel intervention for depression, and are even developing a device to artificially elicit the emotion and multiply its effects.

This is an exciting development in the field of mental health and could potentially offer a new avenue for treatment for individuals suffering from depression and other mood disorders. We are thrilled to be a part of this groundbreaking research and look forward to seeing what the future holds.
