Development and Validation of the Homophobia Scale
The effects of stimuli that vary in erotic content on cognitive processes
This study investigated the effects of stimuli that vary in erotic content on performance during a choice reaction time (CRT) task. Eighty subjects, 20 from each of four groups—heterosexual men, heterosexual women, gay men, and lesbian women—completed the study. Participants were required to locate the position of a dot on slides of nude and clothed men and women as well as neutral stimuli as rapidly as possible. It was hypothesized that sexual i…
Is homophobia associated with homosexual arousal?
Relationship between MMPI and penile plethysmograph in accused child molesters
We investigated the relationship between the MMPI and penile plethysmograph in a sample of 90 alleged child molesters. Men who had been accused of molesting a prepubertal child were divided into two groups on the basis of penile plethysmograph results (Deviant and Non‐Deviant Profiles). The MMPI scales were used to predict group membership using discriminant function analysis. The results revealed that the MMPI scores were statistically related t…
Voluntary control of penile tumescence among homosexual and heterosexual subjects
Voluntary control of penile tumescence
Penile plethysmography is considered a promising procedure for the assessment of sexual arousal and orientation. However, the discovery that some individuals are capable of invalidating the results of the test has raised concerns about its limitations. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a signal detection task in eliminating faking. Additionally, the effect of an incentive on the ability to fake on penile plethysmog…

Investigation of Personal Investment in Behavioral Role-Playing Tasks Used to Assess Assertiveness
The role of subjects' personal investment or incentive in responding to behavioral role-playing tasks used to assess assertiveness was investigated. Using scores on the Rathus Assertiveness Schedule, subjects were assigned to one of three groups of high, low, or medium assertiveness. All subjects differentially responded to situations designed to elicit high or low personal investment. All subjects tended to exhibit qualitatively better assertive…

Alcohol effects on the orgasmic‐ejaculatory response in human males
Increasing levels of alcohol intoxication, as measured by blood‐alcohol concentration, produced significant degradation in male masturbatory effectiveness. Employing psychophysiological indices of orgasm and several subjective criteria, a progressive and systematic effect of alcohol on the orgasmic‐ejaculatory response was found. Results are discussed with implications for the etiology, treatment, and prevention of alcohol‐induced sexual dysfunct…

Delay of Information in Paired-Associate Learning among Incarcerated Groups of Sociopaths and Heroin Addicts
The present study investigated the effects of information delay or delay of reinforcement on rate of acquisition in a paired-associate learning task using the anticipation method and appearance of the S-R term as knowledge of results in three groups of socially deviant males. Sociopaths, sociopathic addicts, and nonsociopathic controls ( n = 90) practiced on a paired-associate task under three conditions of reinforcement: nondelay, 4-sec. delay, …

Anxiety, Learning Sets, and Sociopathy
This study attempted to determine if lack of ability to profit from past experience was characteristic of primary or secondary sociopathics. Sociopathic and normal Ss were divided into high- and low-anxiety groups on the basis of the Lykken Activity Preference Questionnaire, the Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale, and the Welsh Anxiety Index. Using a modified Wisconsin General Test Apparatus, Ss were given a series of problems in order to observe the …

Chlorpromazine and Memory Consolidation
To determine whether chlorpromazine affects learning by disrupting memory traces 40 23-hr. water-deprived rats were given 1 trial per day in a straight alley maze for a water reward. The factorial design included (a) chlorpromazine vs saline and (b) injection 10 sec. after a learning trial vs injection 30 min. after a learning trial. All groups learned but there were no significant main effects or interaction, which indicates that chlorpromazine …
Operant conditioning with schizophrenics comparing verbal reinforcers versus psychoanalytic interpretations
Psychotherapeutic Techniques as Conditioned Reinforcers in a Structured Interview
The study attempted to investigate experimentally the effects of psychotherapy techniques such as interpretation, minimal social reinforcement, hostile statements, and reflections in a structured interview using a verbal conditioning paradigm. While Ss talked freely about any topic, personal references were reinforced by one of four ways on a fixed ratio of 5:1. Results indicated that interpretative statements and minimal social reinforcement inc…
Deviant Responses as Indicators of Depression and Character Disorder
This study was undertaken to determine if scales for measuring depression and character disorder could be constructed using deviant response as measured by the Perceptual Reaction Test (PRT). Scale development and validation employed 1000 normal individuals and 113 abnormal individuals. Groups of individuals psychiatrically identified as depressive individuals and character disorders were compared with groups from the general population on the PR…

Effect of the Volunteer Variable on Leaderless Group Discussion Experiments
The purpose of this study was to investigate the personality characteristics of Ss who volunteered for a leaderless discussion experiment, as compared with Ss who did not volunteer. Their personality characteristics were appraised by the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule ( 1 ) . Ss were 95 Louisiana State University students enrolled in an introductory psychology course. The volunteer group contained 44 students; the nonvolunteer group contain…
Statistical Rigidity in Schizophrenic and Normal Groups Measured with Auditory and Visual Stimuli
As rigidity has been regarded as an important variable in the description of personality, its operations and characteristics have been described in detail. It has been frequently described as decreased variability of behavior, e.g., Werner (1946) has emphasized that rigidity is a lack of behavioral variability and that it may be exhibited in varying ways in different situations. Fisher (1950) has observed that flexibility (lack of rigidity) in th…

Affective Tone of Test Option Choice as a Deviant Response
While the evidence is slender, there appear to be modal response patterns which reflect a characteristic affective tone under appropriate stimulus conditions for certain deviant groups. Thus, some groups of Ss seem to show a preponderance of responses, such as true, like, etc., which are positive in affective tone. Other groups exhibit opposite tendencies in a preference for false, dislike, etc. Certain personality tests, because of the option fo…
Effects of Psychoanalytically-Derived Interpretations
the verbal conditioning studies, the number of attempts to manipulate relevant ' variables is minimal. Lack of such attempts in a controlled laboratory setting may be because it is often assumed that psychotherapy is an intricate and complex process which is difficult to simulate in the rigid experimental situation. Some therapists have indicated that experimental analysis might destroy what they term the essence of the therapeutic situation. Fur…

Generality of Deviant Responses in Critical and Noncritical Areas of Behavior
In an examination of the internal consistency of the Deviation Hypothesis four hypotheses were advanced: (a) deviant responses whose response options were similar and developed on the same criterion group will correlate highly; (b) deviant responses whose response options were similar and developed on different criterion groups will have a moderate correlation; (c) deviant responses whose response options were not similar and developed on differe…
