Reversing the mere exposure effect in spider fearfuls: Preliminary evidence of sensitization
2016, Biological PsychologyCitation Excerpt :In a second step, this change is then related to evaluations of the stimulus, for instance increased liking (Bonanno & Stillings, 1986; Bornstein & D’Agostino, 1994; Jacoby, Kelley, & Dywan, 1989; Klinger & Greenwald, 1994; Mandler, Nakamura, & Van Zandt, 1987; Seamon, Brody & Kauff, 1983; Smith, 1998). However, several studies have shown that affect does play a role in the origin of the MEE (Mandler et al., 1987; Seamon, McKenna, & Binder, 1998; Winkielman & Cacioppo, 2001). In contrast to strictly cognitive explanations, Zajonc has stressed an affective explanation of the MEE.
The Fluency Amplification Model: Fluent stimuli show more intense but not evidently more positive evaluations
2014, Acta PsychologicaCitation Excerpt :Mandler et al. (1987), for example, showed that stimuli were judged as more pleasant, lighter, and darker depending on the respective task. These findings, however, could not be replicated (see Seamon, McKenna, & Binder, 1998). Similar effects were observed in the realm of research around the “mere-exposure” effect (Zajonc, 1968): Brickman, Redfield, Harrison, and Crandall (1972) reported increasing preference for initially neutrally or positively rated abstract paintings as a function of exposure.
Gamma oscillations distinguish mere exposure from other likability effects
2014, NeuropsychologiaCitation Excerpt :However, this result is not universal, and some researches have reported different MEE outcomes from subliminal exposure (e.g., Newell & Shanks, 2007). Regarding task requirements, reliable MEE has been measured through likability ratings or other affective scales such as approachability (e.g., Seamon, McKenna, & Binder, 1998). Although the MEE is considered a robust psychological phenomenon, the strength actually varies among individuals.
Familiarity preference in schizophrenia is associated with ambivalent attitudes towards others
2013, Schizophrenia ResearchCitation Excerpt :The presence of a familiarity preference effect did not significantly predict lower negative trait judgments in healthy controls. This is consistent with research showing that processing facilitation is accompanied by positive affect (Winkielman and Cacioppo, 2001) without changes in negative affect (Seamon et al., 1998; Winkielman and Cacioppo, 2001). However, as hypothesized, we found that in patients, familiarity preference predicted greater negative trait judgments.
