Figure 4

Experimental design. All words had colored background pictures, taken from the IAPS [24]. For the Color condition, one of the words on position 5 to 8 was colored (integral isolation). The IAPS background pictures in the Color condition were low on the arousal scale. In the Arousing background condition, all words had the same font color, but one of the background pictures on position 5 to 8 had a high emotional arousal value on the IAPS ratings and was unpleasant in valence (non-integral isolation). Words were aligned on the central lower part of the background picture.
