“…Reaction Time Although there have been a number of investigations of the latent times of affective judgments (56,63,64,72,90,91,51,53), the mean times, as well as the experimental conditions, are so variable from one to another that any conclusions extracted must necessarily be very general. The results indicate that mean affective reaction times are longer than simple sensory reaction times, that affective reactions are absolutely more variable than sensory, and that there is no difference in P and in U reaction times.…”

“…Reaction time has been found to vary inversely with degree, and difference in degree, of affection in seven studies. When the method of single stimuli is used, reaction times are shorter for extreme degrees of P and U than for intermediate degrees (56,72,51,53). When the method of paired comparisons is used, reaction times are shorter for-large differences in the affective values of the two stimuli than for small differences (97,91,20).…”

Historical. In the last few decades there has been extensive laboratory research in the field of emotions. In place of the older speculative method, an approach to laboratory procedure was found in the early development of experimental techniques, of which the impressive method was one of the first to be standardized and refined.This procedure was first employed by Fechner in his investigations in the field of aesthetics, the results of which were published in his Yorschule der .Flsthetik in 1876 (9). He recognized three particular methods of study. First, the statistical method, by which account was taken of different combinations in actual use, as those found in a certain number of drawing rooms. Second, the method of production, in which the more pleasing impression was produced by the subject, as in drawing. Third, the method of choice, which involved the selection of the most pleasing impression by the observer.
