研究人员向20名大学生呈现了无信号的50ms白噪声脉冲(95分贝)，以探测他们的知觉加工，同时观看36张彩色摄影幻灯片，描绘愉快/有趣、中性/沉闷或令人不快/有趣的场景和物体。通过眨眼反应测量的噪声爆发的惊吓幅度对于不愉快的材料最大，对于积极的材料最小。这种效果与测量、定向、唤醒和对材料的兴趣无关。这些结果调和了相互矛盾的动物和人类研究。对这些惊吓探测效应的替代注意和反应匹配的解释进行了评估。STARTLE探头被提议作为一种广泛有用的工具来研究情绪及其发展和改变，以及用于评估病理性焦虑。(心理信息数据库记录(C)2022 APA，版权所有)
Twenty undergraduate subjects were presented with unsignaled 50-ms white noise bursts (95 dB) to probe their perceptual processing while viewing 36 colored photographic slides, depicting pleasant/interesting, neutral/dull, or unpleasant/interesting scenes and objects. Startle magnitudes to the noise bursts as measured by the eyeblink response were largest for unpleasant material and smallest for positive material. This effect was independent of measures or orienting, arousal, and interest in the materials. The results reconcile conflicting animal and human research. Alternative attentional and response matching explanations of these startle probe effects were evaluated. The startle probe is proposed as a broadly useful tool for studying emotion, its development and modification, and for the assessment of pathological anxiety.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
