Emotions play an important role in argumentation as humans mix rational and emotional attitudes when they argue with each other to take decisions. The SEEMPAD project aims at investigating the role of emotions in human argumentation. In this paper, we present a resource resulting from two field experiments involving humans in debates, where arguments put forward during such debates are annotated with the emotions felt by the participants. In addition, in the second experiment, one of the debaters plays the role of the persuader, to convince the other participants about the goodness of her viewpoint applying different persuasion strategies. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first dataset of arguments annotated with the emotions collected from the participants of a debate, using facial emotion recognition tools.
