Abstract: There are a few factors related to the categorization of illustrated emotions. The most notable ones are suggested to be the following: facial expression, body posture, and emanata. The current study focuses on revealing the roles of these three factors, as well as their combinations with the addition of the narrative context that currently seems to be of very high practical significance. Illustrated emotional images were used in the experiment, and the presence of different pictorial factors was varied. The accuracy of categorization and reaction time of the participants were analyzed for different conditions. The results suggest that emanata and body posture play the least significant role in emotional categorization, especially when the contextual information is absent. At the same time, the addition of all three pictorial elements facilitated the emotional categorization. However, the roles of the specific combinations of the introduced factors were not revealed, which requires further clarification
