Presented children (N=96) aged 8-11 with verbal pain or nonpain stimuli contingent or noncontingent on a target response.

Approach-Avoidance Behaviors as a Function of Pleasantness and Arousing Quality of Settings and Individual Differences in Stimulus Screening.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hines, Melissa; Mehrabian, Albert – Social Behavior and Personality, 1979
The pleasure-arousal hypothesis predicts an interaction between pleasure and arousal levels in determining approach-avoidance, such that approach increases with arousal in pleasant settings and decreases with arousal in unpleasant settings. Results support this hypothesis. (Author)
