Developing an Implicit Measure of Disgust Propensity and Disgust Sensitivity: Examining the Role of Implicit Disgust Propensity and Sensitivity in Obsessive-Compulsive Tendencies [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that disgust responding occurs at both a primary and secondary level in the form of disgust propensity and disgust sensitivity. The unique contributions of anxiety and disgust need to be established if disgust is to be implicated in the etiology of anxiety disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

It is generally assumed that disgust is accompanied by increased activation of the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). However, empirical support for the role of PNS in disgust is scarce. This study tested whether (i) activation of the PNS is indeed involved in disgust and (ii) disgust-induced autonomic activation is especially pronounced in ...

Although a few measures of disgust propensity are available in Italy, most of them take a long time to administer and/or have not shown replicable and sound psychometric properties. In the current study, the authors developed an Italian nine‐item self‐report measure of disgust propensity (particularly of pathogen disgust)—the Disgust Propensity ...

The Disgust Propensity and Sensitivity Scale – Revised: Its Predictive Value for Avoidance Behavior [PDF]
Disgust propensity appears involved in psychopathology. However, current disgust propensity indices display inflated correlations with psychopathology indices due to conceptual overlap. The recently developed Disgust Propensity and Sensitivity Scale - Revised (DPSS-R) is unique in that it measures disgust propensity irrespective of specific elicitors ...
