negative rank of 0.00 and mean positive rank of 3.00 for both classes), and the number of errors
in classes 1 and 3 (p = 0.04, mean negative rank of 3.00 and mean positive rank of 0.00 for both
classes). There were no significant differences for Conditions 1 or 2 in number of errors,
accuracies, or latencies (p > 0.05). There were no significant differences found in testing trials
for any of the conditions in any of the performance measures (p > 0.05).
Hypothesis 3: Second and Third Stimuli Ratings
Transfer of function, in which the originally neutral nonsense symbols begin to share the
emotional salience of the participant generated words, was tested for by examining the difference
in stimuli rating scores. Scores from stimuli ratings in the second administration of the rating
measure were subtracted from the first administration of the rating measure. This means that
difference scores in the positive reflect a decrease in ratings and scores in the negative reflect an
increase in the ratings. Although differences in stimuli ratings were evidenced, again there were
no consistent patterns in the differences as would be expected. Participant HRF1 was the closest
to what was expected, with an increase in ratings towards A and C stimuli and a subsequent
decrease in ratings in the third administration of the ratings measure. However, most change
scores revealed random changes in ratings. When scores were averaged for all participants for
the first to second stimuli rating, a response pattern that better reflected transfer of function
began to emerge (see Figure 9). Ratings from each participant was also averaged and depicted in
the second graph in Figure 9 to illustrate what the original ratings were and how they changed.
Overall averages for the second to third stimuli ratings were also calculated for each
condition. When overall averages of stimuli rating change scores were compared between
conditions, Condition 1 displayed relatively more decreases in ratings while Condition 284
