Two procedures to experimentally induce negative and neutral emotional states are compared: self-referent emotional statements (Velten, 1968) presented alone vs. combined with music. For female subjects selected according to their baseline mood, it could be shown that negative statements alone induced anger whereas in combination with music they evoked sadness, i.e. dependent on the procedure applied, the quality of the induced negative emotion changed. For the induction of a neutral state the combined procedure proved to be superior, especially to reduce a positive baseline mood.
单独呈现自我参照情绪陈述（韦尔滕，1968年）与将其与音乐结合呈现。对于根据基线情绪挑选出的女性受试者，结果表明，单独的消极陈述会引发愤怒，而与音乐结合时则会引发悲伤，即根据所应用的程序，所诱导的消极情绪的性质会发生变化。对于中性状态的诱导，结果证明结合程序更具优势，尤其是在降低积极基线情绪方面。
