The golden section hypothesis, which predicts a specific proportion of positive and negative affective judgments, is described and tested in a marketing context. Results support the existence of the golden section in consumer judgments of a marketing stimulus and suggest that this affective response bias also exists within the independent factors that comprise the total judgment of a stimulus.
