title: Mood-dependent learning. II. Healthy subjects--influence of positive and negative feedback on expectancy shifts.
abstract: Changes of success expectancy in healthy test persons are investigated in this study. An experimental mood manipulation with the help of mood statements by Velten [1968] was performed. Changes of success expectancy were rather attributable to the present mood than to the trait-component 'depression'.
