Reconsidering the Evolution of Nonlinguistic Communication: The Case of Laughter (2003, result): “This interpretation is consistent with finding that infant crying is routinely “grating” and “distressing” (Zeskind & Lester, 1978), and has marked impact on listener arousal ( Bradley & Lang, 2000 ).”
Pupil size variation as an indication of affective processing (2003, background): “The arousal dimension reflects the intensity of either appetitive or aversive systems (Bradley and Lang, 2000; Lang, 1995; Lang et al., 1993).”
Multiple Arousal Theory and Daily-Life Electrodermal Activity Asymmetry (2016, background): “…including dimensional and continuous, categorical and discrete, appraisal-driven, consisting of action tendencies, socially constructed, or comprising core affect together with experience-driven influences, the concept of emotion has included some kind of capacity for physiological arousal.”
The Impact of Music on Subjective and Physiological Indices of Emotion While Viewing Films (2005, background): “Bradley and Lang (2000a) suggested that short (6 s) nonmusical acoustic stimuli are effective in influencing both subjective and physiological indices of valence and arousal.”
Negative arousal amplifies the effects of saliency in short-term memory. Emotion, 12, 1367-1372. (2017, background): “Twenty highly arousing negative sounds and 20 neutral sounds from the International Affective Digital Sound system (Bradley & Lang, 2000, 2007) were presented via headphones.”
Analysis of Neurophysiological Reactions to Advertising Stimuli by Means of EEG and Galvanic Skin Response Measures (2009, neutral): “…Greenwald, Bradley, & Hamm, 1993), subliminal priming (de Groot, 1996; Dimberg et al., 2000; Rotteveel, de Groot, Geutskens, & Phaf, 2001), sounds (Bradley & Lang, 2000; Dimberg, 1990), words (Hietanen, Surakka, & Linnankoski, 1998), and imagery (Schwartz, Fair, Salt, Mandel, & Klerman, 1976).”
Phasic Emotional Reactions to Video Game Events: A Psychophysiological Investigation (2006, background): “In addition, increased activity at the orbicularis oculi (periocular) muscle area has been associated with positively valenced high-arousal emotions (Bradley & Lang, 2000; Ravaja, Saari, Kallinen, & Laarni, 2006; Witvliet & Vrana, 1995).”
Enhanced memory for emotional material following stress-level cortisol treatment in humans. (2001, background): “…or unpleasant on the valence scale were remembered more often than neutral pictures (Bradley et al., 1992), but this effect was stronger for highly arousing pictures, and arousal tended to be a better predictor of memory performance than did valence (Bradley et al., 1992; Bradley and Lang, 2000).”
Measures of emotion: A review (2009, positive): “For example, HR decreases can co-occur with increases in sympathetic activity as assessed by other ANS measures (Bradley & Lang, 2000b; Lang et al., 1997; Libby, Lacey, & Lacey, 1973).”
Contributions of Psychophysiology to Media Research: Review and Recommendations (2004, neutral): “…occurring sounds (e.g., screams, erotica, bombs), semantically negative spokenwords,andvocalexpressionsofanger, compared topositivestimuli (Bradley & Lang, 2000; Hietanen, Surakka, & Linnankoski, 1998; Wexler, Warrenburg, Schwartz, & Janer, 1992); however, these negative and positive…”
Are the Emotions Expressed in Music Genre-specific? An Audio-based Evaluation of Datasets Spanning Classical, Film, Pop and Mixed Genres (2011, methodology): “3 For instance, in Gomez and Danuser ( 2004 ), graphical and non-verbal Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM, Bradley & Lang, 2000 ) was used to collect the stimulus evaluations.”
Toward a theory of semantic representation (2009, result): “In general terms, this result is compatible with a motivational model of a¤ective states as proposed by Lang and colleagues (Bradley and Lang 2000; Lang et al. 1990) proposing that emotion-evoking stimuli are motivationally relevant and that they lead to rapid modification of behaviour.”
Facial and vocal expressions of emotion. (2003, background): “…laced with cognition (Scherer 2001, Smith & Kirby 2001), with a looser, more malleable and context-dependent relation among the components (Bradley & Lang 2000b) and with a role for broad primitive affective dimensions such as pleasure-displeasure and activation (Russell & Feldman Barrett…”
