Document Summary

Heyduk (1975) subjects listen to arti cial stimuli & indicate liking after each hearing some stimuli liking increased with more repetitions others it decreased. Generally people liking increases with familiarity after a certain level of familiarity with a piece, liking will decrease- satiation e ect or inverted u: complexity. Heyduk (1975) made piano passages with varying harmonic complexity & syncopation from very simple to complex complexity also interacts with familiarity (ratings increased for more complex compositions than not after more hearings) Information flow uniform information density- idea is that processing is easiest when info ows @ moderate level info is related to predictability: unexpected events are high in info if info ows too slowly, we are bored- lose interest. Ows too quickly, we are overwhelmed- feel less stress & anxiety producers of language tend to adhere to this principle too - people tend to slow down on unexpected words.
