从一个新的理论推导的情绪意象进行了研究。假设的概念内容处理过程中的图像确定的幅度和模式的一致传出活动进行了测试。通过改变提示指令的内容（在图像脚本中强调刺激细节或主动反应）和先前的图像训练（其中人类受试者的图像后口头报告被塑造为强调刺激或反应材料）来操纵图像。三个主题的内容进行了审查：中立，行动和恐惧的场景。在一个实验中，一组接受反应导向的图像训练和反应脚本进行了比较，以刺激为导向的组。这一假设得到了支持。反应被试在想象过程中表现出更大的生理活动，他们的传出模式一般遵循脚本内容。在第二个实验中，一组再次接受反应训练，另一组接受刺激训练。每组中的一半人后来接受了反应结构脚本的测试，另一半人接受了刺激脚本的测试。这一假设再次得到支持。经过反应训练的受试者在反应脚本上进行测试，显示出大量的生理活动。接受刺激训练和/或刺激脚本的其他组在想象过程中没有表现出显着的生理反应。反应训练的受试者通常认为他们的图像更生动。受试者管理的反应导向的脚本报告更多的情绪唤起比受试者管理的刺激脚本。
Deductions from a new theory of emotional imagery were studied. The hypothesis that the conceptual content processed during imagery determines the amplitude and pattern of coincident efferent activity was tested. The image was manipulated by varying the content of the prompting instructions (either stimulus detail or active responding was emphasized in the image script) and by prior imagery training (in which human subjects'' post-image verbal reports were shaped to emphasize either stimulus or response material). Three thematic contents were examined: neutral, action and fear scenes. In one experiment, a group which received response-oriented imagery training and response scripts was compared to a stimulus-oriented group. The hypothesis was supported. Response subjects showed greater physiological activity during imagery and their efferent pattern generally followed the script content. In a 2nd experiment, 1 group again received response training and the other received stimulus training. Half of each group was later tested on response-structured scripts and the other half on stimulus scripts. The hypothesis was again supported. Response-trained subjects tested on response scripts showed substantial physiological activity. None of the other groups which received stimulus training and/or stimulus scripts showed significant physiological responses during imagery. Response-trained subjects generally rated their imagery as more vivid. Subjects administered response-oriented scripts reported more emotional arousal than did subjects administered stimulus scripts.
