Emotional Valence Modulates the Preference for Curved Objects
Emotional Valence Modulates the Preference for Curved Objects is a scholarly work by Moshe Bar, published in 2011 in ''Perception''. The main subjects of the publication include social psychology, valence, valence, neuroesthetics, curvature, multisensory integration, cognitive psychology, color psychology, and psychology. The authors found that people indeed preferred the curved versions of objects to the sharp versions of the same objects, but only if the objects were neutral or positive in emotional valence.
