Affect level, capillary pulse pressure, and response latency

Abstract

EXAMINED THE EFFECTS OF THE INTEREST VALUE OF STIMULI ON PULSE RATE, CAPILLARY PULSE PRESSURE, AND OVERT EVALUATION RESPONSE LATENCIES. 12 SS EVALUATED 20 4-LETTER WORDS IN TERMS OF AN INTERESTING-DULL DIMENSION UNDER BOTH VISUAL AND AUDITORY PRESENTATION CONDITIONS WHILE THE 3 MEASURES OF INTEREST WERE SIMULTANEOUSLY AND CONTINUOUSLY RECORDED. THE RESULTS INDICATE NO RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PULSE RATE AND INTEREST LEVEL, BUT SIGNIFICANT FUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN BOTH CAPILLARY PULSE PRESSURE AND OVERT RESPONSE LATENCIES AND LEVELS OF INTEREST.
