McGinnies ' (1949) study on perceptual defense was replicated. No significant results were noted for galvanic skin responses. Threshold differences were significant; taboo words had higher thresholds than neutral words. Possibly "emotionality" and "threat" may require separate operational definitions if the effect, "perceptual defense," is to be clearly demonstrated.
麦金尼斯（1949年）关于知觉防御的研究被重复进行。在皮肤电反应方面未发现显著结果。阈限差异显著；禁忌词的阈限高于中性词。如果要清楚地证明“知觉防御”这一效应，那么“情绪性”和“威胁”可能需要分别有不同的操作定义。
