Abstract

It has been suggested that high alexithymia scorers have an 'augmenter' profile which amplifies their physiological and subjective responses to highly arousing stimuli. The aim of this study was to test this theory using several physiological measures. Participants listened to musical excerpts either in a 'weak-to-strong' or a 'strong-to-weak' order of arousing levels of stimuli. The results show that alexithymia was associated with an augmenter profile for subjective reports for the most arousing stimulus and with stronger skin conductance level responses in the 'strong-to-weak' order. These results partially support the augmenter profile and reveal that alexithymia may be associated with higher anticipation for the most arousing excerpt.

摘要

有人认为，高得分的述情障碍者具有“增强者”特征，这种特征会放大他们对高度刺激的生理和主观反应。本研究的目的是使用几种生理测量方法来验证这一理论。参与者以“弱到强”或“强到弱”的刺激唤醒水平顺序聆听音乐片段。结果表明，述情障碍与最令人兴奋的刺激的主观报告的增强者特征有关，并且在“强到弱”的顺序中皮肤电导率水平的反应更强。这些结果部分支持了增强者特征，并表明述情障碍可能与对最令人兴奋的片段的更高预期有关。
