www.psychexamreview.com In this video I explain the idea of misattribution of arousal; when people misinterpret their physiological arousal, which may cause them to mislabel their emotional experience. I explain how this was demonstrated in Schachter & Singer's study (discussed in the previous video) as well as in Stuart Valins's study of false heart-beat feedback. The most famous example of misattribution of arousal comes from Donald Dutton and Arthur Aron's study of male responses to a female interviewer differing whether they met her on the Capilano suspension bridge or on solid ground.
