In
2003, Spottiswoode and May, of the Cognitive Science Laboratory, replicated
these experiments carrying out a series of controls in order to study possible
artifacts and alternative explanations. Results confirmed those already
obtained by Radin, of the activation of the parameters of the autonomic nervous
system before the presentation of emotional stimuli[1].
Similar results have been obtained by other authors, always using the parameters
of the autonomic nervous system, for example: McCratly,
Atkinson and Bradely[2],
Radin and Schlitz[3]
and May, Paulinyi and Vassy[4]..
