inspiration came in their choice of the initiation ceremony as the best place to ex- amine this possibility. They found that college women who had to endure a se- verely embarrassing initiation ceremony in order to gain access to a sex discussion group convinced themselves that their new group and its discussions were ex- tremely valuable, even though Aronson and Mills had rehearsed the other group members to be as "worthless and uninteresting" as possible. Different coeds who went through a much milder initiation ceremony or went through no initiation at all, were decidedly less positive about the "worthless" new group they had joined. Additional research showed the same results when coeds were required to endure pain rather than embarrassment to get into a group (Gerard 8( Mathewson, 1966). The more electric shock a woman received as part of the initiation ceremony, the
gave many talks on cryptanalysis to Swedes. He also sowed the seeds of a valuable cooperation With the other Scandinavian countries when he lectured in Oslo and stimulated Captain Roscher-Lund to set up Norway's first cryptologic office. In 1939, during a 12-hour war game, Gylden headed the cryptanalytical office that solved 38 of the 56 rather simple cryptograms transmitted by the "invaders." Sweden's preparations extended to recruiting talks at Uppsala University, where coeds were entertained with the intrigues of cryptology and sold on the idea that they could become good codebreakers. Other personnel were drawn from the winners of cipher-solving contests which the cryptanalysts got the newspapers to run. When war broke out, the Swedish cryptanalysts numbered 22. All were paid the magnificent sum of half a crown a day (raised later by stages to two crowns), as a result of which most of them engaged in a
