The study aimed to see if new, non-scary pictures could make people's skin respond differently. They showed 30 women 20 new slides while measuring their skin's reaction. After some training, the women's skin reacted differently to the slides, even when they weren't scary. This shows that even mild new things can change how our bodies react.
