Advanced students in paychology are acting as subjects for the ex-
periment because they are interested in the ne technie and want to
try it out," White sald. "The complexity of the apparatus around
theh would probably affect the validity of the results were inexperienced
subjects used. . ...
"The apparatus consists of a plethysmograph, an instrument which
records the changes of blood In the arm; a machine which records the
rat. and change of breathing; a blood presure apparatus, and a lip key
which measures th. tim. It takes for th. subject to react to a word
given him by the experimenter by giving another word which come.
Into his mind. Deception by an Individual I. generally thought of as
causing his blood pressure to increase."
White has been at work on the experiment since September. The re-
sults W1U probably be published in some ncientitie periodical. White
