Means and standard deviations (in parentheses) of startle magnitude, startle latency, and HR for Experiments 1 and 2.

Experiment 1
	Fear	Sadness	Joy	Pleasant Relaxation	“Count One”
Startle Magnitude	10.64 (5.08)	10.32 (5.33)	10.75 (4.85)	10.27 (5.13)	10.00 (5.11)
Startle Latency	39.78 (8.04)	39.92 (8.61)	39.49 (8.22)	41.03 (8.81)	41.77 (7.80)
Heart Rate	1.72 (1.90)	.77 (1.65)	1.07 (1.79)	.71 (1.52)	.93 (1.41)

Experiment 2
	Fear	Sadness	Joy	Disgust	“Count One”

Startle Magnitude	9.60 (7.98)	9.16 (7.81)	9.18 (8.62)	9.29 (7.84)	8.88 (8.06)
Startle Latency	35.47 (10.22)	36.67 (10.89)	37.71 (10.46)	35.51 (10.71)	37.86 (12.74)
Heart Rate	1.47 (2.31)	.60 (2.10)	1.57 (2.20)	1.75 (2.06)	1.10 (1.33)

Note: Startle magnitude data are in μvolts, latency is in milliseconds, and HR is in change in beats/minute.
