Abstract
From Berlyne's theorizing concerning the determinants of hedonic value of a stimulus it was hypothesized that importance of evaluative judgments and frequency of exposure would interact in determining the favorability of affective ratings. This prediction was confirmed by the data. Increasing the importance of the rating task decreased the favorability of the ratings of low-frequency stimuli but enhanced the ratings of high-frequency stimuli.

Results suggest learning may be intrinsically rewarding and clarify one of the mechanisms involved in the relationship between exposure frequency and affect, extending Berlyne's two-factor theory of the effects of stimulus familiarity.

The results provide firm support for the hypothesis that aversive stimulation elicits a shift in preference toward familiarity and suggest that the behavior of shocked laboratory rats in this type of situation may be akin to the “neophobia” observed in wild rats.

Reactions of subjects to the experimental situation was investigated by means of plasma free fatty acid level, androusal was shown at entry into the experiment, at the giving of instructions, and at upsetting experiences during the experiment.

Nine infants exposed to different levels of complexity under low and high hunger drive showed relatively greater preference for complexity than high-hunger Ss and the results were interpreted in terms of optimal-stimulation theory and information-processing theory.
