Abstract

This study includes the standardization of 240 new stimuli in the Brazilian norms for the International Affective Picture System (IAPS), an instrument of affective images widely used in research, and confirms the validity of the categories of "pleasant," "neutral" and "unpleasant" pictures. A comparison was performed of the scores of affective ratings between the male and female samples of university students (179 males, and 269 females), who assessed the affective content of photographs in terms of valence, arousal and dominance using the Self Assessment Manikin (SAM) scale. The methods were the same used in a study conducted for the American norms. (AU)
