To study the effect of the discrete emotion, we have to control the Valence and Arousal of the words in each category.
Aim: Investigate the role of discrete emotions on lexical processing and memory by focusing on Disgust and Fear
Why those emotions? Because they share the same dimensional characteristics (Both Negative) But they differ in the dicrete emotions perspective, and have different biological meanings (disgust is primarily related to contamination, whereas fear is related to a broader type of danger.

Results:
Experiment 1
Lexical Decision Task
Main effect of type of word:
More Errors with fearful words than with either disgusting words or neutral words
Main effect of the type of words on RTs:
Slower RTs to disgusting words and to fearful words than to neutral words.
-
Experiment 2
Lexical Decision Task
Effect of the type of word on RTs:
Slower RTs for disgusting words and for fearful words than for neutral words.
Effect of the type of word on %E:
More errors with both disgusting words and fearful words than neutral words.
Recognition Task
Significant effect of the type the word:
Number of hits is higher for disgusting words than for either fearful words or neutral words.
Significant effect of type of word:
Number of false alarms was higher for disgusting words and for fearful words than for neutral words.
Experiment 3
-
Recognition task
No significant effect of the type of word, either on hits or false alarm rates.
When part. were asked to decide if a particular set of words was positive, disgusting and fearful words were responded to faster and more accurately than neutral words. (Deciding that a neutral word is not positive is harder than deciding that a disgusting or fearful word is not positive)
108 Words, 54 words for the Affective categorisation Task

Arousing stimuli may cause different physiological response systems to change in different directions.
According to Lacey, cardiac and electrodermal responses are not only uncorrelated-they may even change systematically in opposite directions under certain circumstances.
Procedure:
Material:
50 Slides, color pictures, presented for 30 secs, 8secs btw each pictures. 5 categories (unpleasant, sexual, scenic, pleasant and unusual)
Measures:
-
HR
Typical waveform of cardiac responses:
- 1st sec deceleration (D1)
- 4th sec acceleration (A1)
- 9th sec deceleration (D2)
-
Results:
Slide categories
On HR:
Effect of the slide category on the HR A1: A1 response was lower for unpleasant slides than for sexual or scenic slides).
-
Discussion:
Visceral responses and facial expressions carried information about evaluation and intensity (dimensions underlying emotion experience)

-
The rating task does not mask or distort the cardiac-affect relashionsip, but merely add a constant acceleratory nfluence across conditions. This acceleration probably relfects the additional cognitive and response-preparing requirement.
