| Research Abstract |
In this study, we examined how both autonomic nervous responses and psychological judgments are modulated during learning phase of the visual stimuli. We found that a pupil response varied systematically during the visual search training. We also showed that a modulation of pupil response elicited by a subliminally presented visual stimulus can predict preference for the stimulus.
