Date of correction: February 24, 2009Reason for correction: -Correction: ABSTRACTDetails: Wrong : Three experiments were conducted to test the assumption that “need”-re-lated objects, either positive or negative, would be accentuated than neutral ob-jects. In Experiment I, a kind of a conditioning was employed, that is, three originally neutral figures were connected with monetary values, i.e., positive, negative or neutral connota-tion, in a gambling situation. After this procedure S was asked to estimate the size of these figures. The experi-ment was conducted for nine days. The results of this experiment showed that “need”-related figures, positive and negative, tended to be distinguished from neutral figures, but both positive and negative were either overestimated or underestimated than neutral figures. In Experiment II it was found that these facts could not happen without the conditioning operation. Experi-ment III showed that the size estima-tion of the same stimulus figure was influenced by the difference of the cues employed. It was discussed that these results might be explained in terms of “cue difference” by a after-effect of the categorical responses in the condi-tioning operation, rather than in terms of “accentuation”, “schemata” etc.
