Chapter 6: General Discussion
6.7 Conclusion
This thesis investigated the pattern of affective responses to coherence, using Meta-Analysis, behavioural experimentation, and fEMG. Based on the results gathered across these methods, a novel multi-source approach was proposed. The multi-source model advances the understanding of affective responses to fluency, by demonstrating that affect can be evoked by both the hedonic marking and fluency amplification hypotheses, which is a stance not previously considered in the literature.
Interestingly, this meant that when fluency is increased for negative stimuli, both positive and negative affect can be evoked, which highlights the importance for future studies involving fluency to consider separate measurement of positive and negative affect, alongside manipulation of stimuli valence.
