Table 4. Experiment 4: Results from a 2 (sound sequence) × 3 (facial expression) repeated-measures ANOVA on stimulus ratings, reaction times (RT), and phasic sympathetic arousal as estimated from skin conductance responses (SCR); and from a t-test on tonic sympathetic arousal as estimated from spontaneous fluctuations (SF) in skin conductance.
Rating | Expression | F (2, 80) = 57.5 | η2 = .590 | p < .001 |
Sound | F (1,40) = 9.9 | η2 = .198 | p < .005 | |
Expression x Sound | F (2,80) < 1 | η2 = .007 | n. s. | |
RT | Expression | F (2, 80) = 14.7 | η2 = .269 | p < .001 |
Sound | F (1,40) = 4.8 | η2 = .108 | p < .05 | |
Valence x Sound | F (2,80) < 1 | η2 = .025 | n. s. | |
SCR | Expression | F (2, 80) = 6.7 | η2 = .144 | p < .005 |
Sound | F (1,40) < 1 | η2 = .010 | n. s. | |
Expression x Sound | F (2,80) < 1 | η2 = .008 | n.s. | |
SF | Sound | t (40) = 1.2 | n.s. |
