Threat, Authoritarianism, and Selective Exposure to Information 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
We examined the hypothesis that threat alters the cognitive strategies used by high authoritarians in seeking out new political information from the environment. In a laboratory experiment, threat was manipulated through a "mortality salience" manipulation used in research on terror management theory ( Pyszczynski, Solomon & Greenberg, 2003 ). Subjects (N = 92) were then invited to read one of three editorial articles on the topic of capital punishment. We found that in the absence of threat, both low and high authoritarians were responsive to salient norms of evenhandedness in information selection, preferring exposure to a two-sided article that presents the merits of both sides of an issue to an article that selectively touts the benefits of the pro or con side of the issue. However, in the presence of threat, high but not low authoritarians became significantly more interested in exposure to an article containing uniformly pro-attitudinal arguments, and significantly less interested in a balanced, two-sided article. Finally, a path analysis indicated that selective exposure to attitude-congruent information led to more internally consistent policy attitudes and inhibited attitude change. Discussion focuses on the role of threat in conditioning the cognitive and attitudinal effects of authoritarianism. 相似文献

This exploratory ethnographic investigation attempts to delve into the intrapersonal and interpersonal gender/sexual roles
and marital dynamics of Greek Cypriot (GC) male marriages to Eastern European (EE) females. European Westernization and consumerism,
with its increased attention on self-actualization, sexual fulfillment, material well-being, women’s rights, and men’s parental
and emotional involvement, has led, over the past two decades, to a reconfiguration of the traditional GC values and beliefs
concerning appropriate male and female gender/sexual roles and identities. This, in turn, has created considerable confusion
over the marital roles and expectations of GC male and female partners, who seem to be waging a difficult struggle to effectively
and efficiently combine Western European and GC traditional standards in their own families. Ethnographic analysis of a limited
sample of 20 GC males married to EE females indicate that the former prefer EE to GC wives because of better-reported emotional,
psychological, and sexual satisfaction. 相似文献

We applied trait activation theory to investigate the situational properties that moderate the correlation of intellect, a sub-dimension of the Big Five factor openness to experience, with work-related criteria. We collected data from a sample of 185 employees from diverse organizations and positions. Results from moderated hierarchical regression analyses revealed that perceived situational properties at the task level moderated the correlation between intellect and job performance. Additionally, correlations between intellect and organizational commitment were moderated at task and organizational levels. This study shows how trait activation theory can be utilized to investigate the situational properties moderating the correlation of personality variables with external criteria. Implications for applied purposes are discussed. 相似文献
