The phrase "affective judgements" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing emotional responses or evaluations related to feelings and attitudes.
Example: "The study focused on affective judgements to understand how individuals emotionally respond to various stimuli."
Alternatives: "emotional evaluations" or "feeling assessments".
A relational hierarchy is established from the physical measurements to the sensorial to the affective judgements.
Similarly, masked fearful or happy faces can influence affective judgements of subsequently presented meaningless ideographs (Murphy and Zajonc, 1993; Murphy et al., 1995).
These experiments contrast with other paradigms, such as those based on the mere exposure effect, in which incidental encoding modulates affective judgements [6] (for a discussion, see Supplemental Information).
In the remaining 144 trials participants were asked to produce a mental image prompted by a caption, followed by affective judgements in 72 trials (36 negative and 36 benign), and size judgements in the other 72 (again 36 of each valence).
Specifically, we wondered whether our use of affective judgements might account for why we found little difference in reality-monitoring errors due to emotionality of mental images, whereas Kensinger and Schacter (2005) concluded from their false alarm data that emotionally negative images were distinguished from pictures more accurately than were benign images.
Together these novel data reveal neural substrates supporting the second level appraisal of emotional information, arising from an integration of perceptual processing within the context of physiological feedback representations, and influencing subjective affective judgement.
Experiment 3 followed a similar method to that of Experiment 2, with one set of 72 captions and corresponding pictures (36 negative and 36 benign) being seen in "look" trials, but now with half of these trials followed by an affective judgement and half by a size judgement.
The consequence of changes in their own mental perception and performance could mean that students' marks might be affected by the order in which they were marked, a concern that is echoed in a review paper on affective influences on judgements and information processing [ 8].
In the experimental AD group, the scores on aspects of anosognosia, prospective memory and introspection were maintained after the intervention phase, and we found in descending order an improvement in the aspects of personal identity, affective state, moral judgements and body representation.
Most health behaviour theories fail to consider emotion or affect in the form of 'feelings' as opposed to 'affective judgements' [ 24].
Alternatively, it is possible that our use of affective rather than size judgements resulted in more attention being paid to the emotional content of pictures (and images) that could be used later to discriminate between mental images and percepts, and so increase reality monitoring accuracy.
