Move me, astonish me… delight my eyes and brain: The Vienna Integrated Model of top-down and bottom-up processes in Art Perception (VIMAP) and corresponding affective, evaluative, and neurophysiological correlates
2017, Physics of Life ReviewsCitation Excerpt :For example, in accordance with the classical “mere-exposure” paradigm [110,111], repeated art viewings can increase felt comfort or preference (e.g., see [112,113] for studies with paintings). Viewers also identify specific foci of evolutionary importance such as landscapes or faces (see [7]), and detect “negative” or unwanted stimuli based on learned schemata or experiences [41,114]. The visual information is then further processed in a stage of “Explicit classification.”
Persuasion and management support for IT projects
2015, International Journal of Project ManagementCitation Excerpt :Given the motive to make sense, management is driven to more extensive processing and greater elaboration of project goals. Increased exposure to positive messages about an issue increases favorable processing of information about the issue (Cutting, 2003; Perlman and Oskamp, 1971). We therefore hypothesize:

2013, Acta PsychologicaCitation Excerpt :Such variables have been shown to substantially influence the exposure–affect relationship (for a review, see Bornstein, 1989). Adopting the standard mere exposure procedure, the effect has also been found for the more meaningful real-world stimuli of photographs of faces (Bornstein & D'Agostino, 1992; Bornstein et al., 1987; Perlman & Oskamp, 1971; Rhodes, Halberstadt, & Brajkovich, 2001; Winograd, Goldstein, Monarch, Peluso, & Goldman, 1999; Zajonc, 1968; Zajonc et al., 1972), and weaker effects have been obtained for paintings (Brickman, Redfield, Harrison & Crandall, 1972; Zajonc et al., 1972). It is suggested that highly complex stimulus materials such as paintings require more active and deeper processing for attitude change than that provided by passive mere exposure in the laboratory (Faerber, Leder, Gerger, & Carbon, 2010).

2011, AppetiteCitation Excerpt :According to Bronson (1972), infants exhibit ambivalent reactions towards many new objects, their natural interest in engaging with their environment conflicting with their fear of the unfamiliar. Adults have also been shown to exhibit a negative response to new stimuli experienced through a variety of senses (including auditory, visual and olfactory stimuli; Monahan, Murphy, & Zajonc, 2000; Perlman & Oskamp, 1971; Zajonc, 1968). In the same way that repeated taste exposures to foods reduce children's neophobia, the adult aversion to novelty is also reported to diminish through repeated encounters.

This article reports the major findings of the first author's Ph.D. dissertation at Claremont Graduate School, for which the second author served as committee chairman. An earlier version was presented in a symposium on The Effects of Repeated Exposure Versus Novelty on the Evaluation of Stimulus Objects (Albert A. Harrison, Chm.) at the American Psychologlical Association meeting in Miami Beach, September, 1970. This study was supported by U. S. Public Health Service Research Grant MH18273-01 and by research funds from Claremont Graduate School and Occidental College. The authors express their thanks for the assistance of Anthony Bishop, Harry Coffey, and the students in the first author's class in Experimental Social Psychology at Occidental College.
