Abstract

In Human-Computer Interaction, error signaling has negative effects both on user’s cognitive efficiency, and
on user’s emotional state. Previous research indicated that such effects are the result of surface processing of error
messages. This study aims at analysing the relations between the psysical characteristics of error messages and user
reactions (cognitive and emotional). Study participants were 110 students (48% male), distributed in 8 experimental
conditions. Results indicated that the pictogram specific to the error message and the presence of the word „error“
in the body of the message lead to the apparition of the cognitive and emotional effects we previously described
