TLDR
The authors investigated the repetition-liking effect as a function of variations in perceptualmotor processing and individual differences in use of perceptual-motor information, concluding that perceptual motor fluency has an important impact on liking judgements.Abstract:
The current study investigated the repetition-liking effect as a function of variations in perceptual-motor processing and individual differences in use of perceptual-motor information. Turkish words from earlier repetition-liking research were used in comparing: (1) perceptual (looking) versus perceptual-motor (looking and pronouncing) processing; and (2) perceptual-motor fluency versus disfluency (pronouncing words in a consistent versus an inconsistent manner). Subjects were divided into groups based on an assessment of imagery ability, a variable associated with the tendency to reactivate motor information in memory. Words were liked more after fluent than after disfluent processing, but only in people with good imagery ability. Perceptual-motor fluency had no effect on the repetition-liking effect in poor imagers. It was concluded that perceptual-motor fluency has an important impact on liking judgements, and that this effect is mediated by individual differences in the tendency to automatic...read more

Play it again Sam: Repeated exposure to emotionally evocative music polarises liking and smiling responses, and influences other affective reports, facial EMG, and heart rate
TL;DR: In this article, exposure effects on liking, self-reported affect, and physiology in response to music were assessed, and participants smiled most during positive arousing music, and least during negative arousing stimuli.

Emotional imagery, the visual startle, and covariation bias: an affective matching account.
TL;DR: Results suggest that affective response matching processes (rather than affective stimulus matching) influenced both startle reflex magnitudes and probe frequency estimates, paralleling startle magnitude findings.

Repetition and Boredom in a Perceptual Fluency/ Attributional Model of Affective Judgements
TL;DR: This paper investigated the effect of repeated processing of stimuli on boredom using a Turkish word paradigm from earlier repetition-liking research and found that boredom appeared with increasing repetitions in the short study, but it disappeared with increasing length of the study.

The role of fluency in preferences for inward over outward words
TL;DR: A mediation analysis suggests that the influence of consonantal direction on preference was partially mediated by fluency, which supports a partial causal contribution of articulation fluency to the in-out effect.

The role of selective attention in perceptual and affective priming.
TL;DR: Results indicate that selective attention to (rather than the mere processing of) letter string identity at study is important for subsequent repetition priming.

Attitudinal effects of mere exposure.
TL;DR: The exposure-attitude hypothesis as discussed by the authors suggests that mere repeated exposure of the individual to a stimulus object enhances his attitude toward it, i.e., exposure is meant a condition making the stimulus accessible to the individual's perception.

Toward an instance theory of automatization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theory in which automatization is construed as the acquisition of a domainspeciSc knowledge base, formed of separate representations, instances, of each exposure to the task.

The effects of mental practice on motor skill learning and performance: A meta-analysis.
TL;DR: This article conducted a more comprehensive review of existing research using the meta-analytic strategy proposed by Glass (1977) and found that mental practice prior to performing a motor skill can enhance one's subsequent performance.
