Sixty subjects, 30 volunteers and 30 nonvolunteers, participated in an experiment examining pretest sensitization effects. Two interpretations of these effects—the commitment hypothesis and the demand interpretation—are explored. A variation of the Solomon four-group design was employed and an interaction between pretesting and the type of communication used was hypothesized. The hypothesis was confirmed. The possibility of using the GSR as an indicator of sensitivity in the pretest design was further explored. Heightened GSR activity was found for pretested when compared with unpretested subjects.
