In two previous experiments, we studied how stimulus motion affects both the self‐report of emotion experience and physiological sequelae emotion. studies, image intensified emotional responding, effect was relatively specific to arousal dimension emotion; there little evidence that altered valence image. Moving images also appeared sustain attention participants for a longer period time than did still images. these however, manipulated within participants. present experiment, used between‐subjects manipulation found nearly identical pattern results. These data indicate inherently increments value an this increment is not dependent on context in which introduced.
