Emotion and perception of one’s own actions – A comment on Wilke, Synofzik and Lindner

► We comment on an article by Wilke, Synofzik and Lindner. ► We discuss the influence non-conceptual and conceptual content may have had on subjects’ responses. ► Emotions of the same valence may have diverging influences on action perception. Wilke et al. (2012) make significant headway in gaining a better understanding of the influence affect cues may have on action perception and judgement. In our view their account also brings up a row of important questions demanding further research. This concerns (a) the role of conceptual and non-conceptual content and (b) the different effects emotions of the same valence may play in the perception and judgement of action.
