The mental state of an individual is obtained in order to generate an emotional profile for the individual. The individual's mental state is derived from an analysis of the individual's facial and physiological information. The emotional profile of other individuals is correlated to the first individual for comparison. Various categories of emotional profiles are defined based upon the correlation. The emotional profile of the individual or group of individuals is rendered for display, used to provide feedback and to recommend activities for the individual, or provide information about the individual.
