“…That said, it is unclear whether any extraordinary responses, should they have occurred, would necessarily have been detected by those conducting these studies since the participants were not given the opportunity to report freely on their own experience during the experiment itself. In fact, the problem here, at least for those interested in studying extraordinary experiences, is that there has been much academic scepticism surrounding the use/value of such unconstrained introspective first-person reports over the last half century or so (see [32]). In the field of experimental psychology, this scepticism may, in part, be linked to the seemingly bizarre statements that a number of the participants in serious academic studies sometimes came out with if probed by the experimenter.…”

A growing number of food and beverage brands have recently started to become interested in trying to link extraordinary emotional experiences to their product offerings. Oftentimes, such extraordinary responses are triggered by product-extrinsic auditory and, to a lesser extent, visual stimuli, such as music or videos having particular sensory qualities or semantic meaning. While much of the interest in this area recently has been linked to the Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR), it is worth noting that there are also a number of other responses, such as chills, thrills, and so-called 'skin orgasms' that have been documented previously, if not always in a food-related context. Elsewhere, both multisensory dining experiences and experiential events have also been reported to bring people to tears. There are, in other words, a number of extraordinary emotional responses that can or, in some cases, already have been linked to the consumption of food and drink. While such responses to auditory stimuli (increasingly mediated by technology) in the context of food are by no means widespread, they nevertheless hold the potential of delivering dramatic food and beverage experiences that offer the promise of being more stimulating, more memorable, and more emotionally-engaging than anything that has gone before.

“…Jacobson himself had devised a neurovoltmeter in the 1920s, capable of detecting tiny changes in muscular electrical activity; indeed, making tension measurable was central to his formulation of relaxation therapy as a demonstrable, verifiable, scientific enterprise. 32 But despite his support for accurate measuring equipment, Jacobson considered biofeedback training to be 'self-defeating' . 33 Requiring an external aid to learn how to relax, he believed, took away from the process of tuning into the body's own feedback and the ability to recognise and eliminate subtle residual tension.…”

“…From very early on Hall's lectures on pedagogy were peppered with the results of his research on children. Although trained in, and an advocate for, the new scientific psychology which emphasized the use of experimental methods and firmly located itself within laboratory spaces (Capshew, 1992;Coon, 1993;Kroker, 2003;Morawski, 1988), Hall's inquiries into childhood eschewed these qualities. Instead, to ascertain the nature of childhood Hall employed topical syllabi, or questionnaires.…”

In the final decades of the 19th century psychologist Granville Stanley Hall was among the most prominent pedagogical experts in the nation. The author explores Hall's carefully crafted persona as an educational expert, and his engagements with the American public, from 1880 to 1900, arguably the height of his influence. Drawing from accounts of Hall's lecture circuit in the popular press, a map of his talks across the nation is constructed to assess the geographic scope of his influence. These talks to educators on the psychology underlying childhood and pedagogy, and his views and research on child life more generally, were regularly discussed in newspapers and popular periodicals. The venues in which Hall's ideas were disseminated, discussed, and in some cases, dismissed are described. His efforts to mobilize popular support for, and assistance with, his research endeavors in child study are also discussed. Such efforts were controversial both within the burgeoning field of psychology and among the public. Through his various involvements in pedagogy, and concerted efforts to engage with the American public, Hall helped establish psychology's relevance to parenting and educational practices.
