Abstract: Children, adolescents and adults demonstrate the experience of opposite valence emotions at the same time when using a visual graph. We applied an Analogue Emotion Scale (AES) showing intensity and duration of mixed emotion experiences, and an exhaustive coding scheme to assess whether children in early childhood understand and graph known patterns and additional types of mixed emotional experiences. 112 children (59 girls) aged 5 7 years forming 2 age groups (Year 1, n= 56, Year 2, n= 56) in the UK mainstream system participated. They heard a mixed emotion vignette about themselves or another child and completed the AES. Graphs of new flexuous, vertical, combined and other expereinces were found as well as sequential, prevalent, highly simultaneous and inverse experiences. The AES uncovered more simultaneous types of mixed emotion experinces than previously found in early chidlhood. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
