Abstract—Cognitive skills play an important role in
performance of any individual. Knowing the level of cognitive
skill, we can predict ones performance in many fields. This
expected performance, using cognitive tools, can be very
helpful especially for critical tasks like fire-fighting, driving of
public transport, flying, and mining etc. Many researchers,
from philosophy and psychology, have established relationship
between expected cognitive skills and different mental and
physical conditions like emotional stability, stress, tiredness,
state of angriness. Different experiments were carried out to
estimate the factors that can affect these skills, for both the
genders, male and female. These experiments conclude that
cognitive ability can be affected largely by the some basic
human emotions i.e. happiness, sadness, anger, fear, disgust,
surprise, and stress. However, no formal formulation could be
established to calculate the expected cognitive skills by
measuring these basic emotions simultaneously. Now we have
many well defined methods in computer sciences, both
supervised and un-supervised, that can be used to establish
such complex relationships. Basic aim of this position paper is
to present the idea of our propose experiment and the expected
outcome. We have also discussed finding of our initial
experiment in this paper and the equation developed from this
experiment.
