Abstract

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of behavioural inhibition system(BIS) and behavioural approach system(BAS) on evaluating affective stimuli and psychophysiological difference of BIS/BAS in different affective picture stimuli. Two experiments were conducted. Experiment 1 and 2 were conducted with affective pictures stimuli(from IAPS). In Experiment 1, I wanted to find whether BIS and BAS have influence on evaluation to affective picture stimuli. As expected, the result showed that BIS high group more negatively evaluated the negative affect pictures than low group and BAS high group more positively evaluated the positive affect pictures than low group. It means that BIS is sensitive negative affect but BAS is sensitive positive affect. In Experiment 2, the purpose of this experiment was to identify difference of psychophysiological responses in BIS and BAS according to resting condition and affective pictures presented condition. I could find frontal asymmetry of BIS and BAS in resting condition. Also I identified the relation between BIS and SCL in negative affect pictures. BIS high group is high SCL in negative affect pictures. However I could not identify the relation between BAS and HR in the positive pictures. In the reaction time, reaction time of BAS is more fast in the positive pictures, but reaction time of BIS is more fast in the negative pictures. Implication for this results were discussed in the final section.
