How positivity diminishes
Positive feelings may diminish. It is unclear whether this decrease stems from people feeling less positive, more negative, more neutral, or some combination. Using an evaluative conditioning (EC) paradigm, we investigated how pre-existing affective evaluations to positive stimuli might be modified. In three experiments (N = 635), participants saw positive scenic images, the conditioned stimuli (CSs), repeatedly paired with either positive, negat…
Feeling more neutral? Evaluative conditioning can increase neutral affective reactions
While it is important to learn what is good and bad, can people learn what is neither? The answer to this question is not readily apparent, but it has important implications for how people learn affective responses. Six experiments examined whether evaluative conditioning (EC) can instill neutral affect. They tested four hypotheses: EC, in which novel conditioned stimuli (CSs) are paired with neutral unconditioned stimuli (USs) (1) creates neutra…
When a lack of passion intertwines with thought and action
Researchers might assume that neutrality does not shape thought and action because it signals that nothing in the environment needs attention, hence a person has little need to alter their behavior. However, feeling neutral about an issue might be consequential. The COVID-19 pandemic was a major issue during the 2020 U.S. presidential election. We examined whether feeling neutral about COVID-19 was associated with attitudes about the top 2 presid…
