Påverkan på implicita attityder genom självinvolverings- och efterbeslutsprocesser
(2002)Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- The purpose of this study was to examine if results on the Implicit Association Test (IAT) could be affected by self-involvment and post-decision processes. 74 participants (mainly students) completed a self-esteem and a self-involvement questionnaire and two IATs. Self-involvement was manipulated by distributing two tasks assumed to be of different difficulty level. Post-decision processes was inferred from letting half the participants choose a chocolate-bar prior to IAT and half after IAT. It was hypothesized that IAT-results would show a preference for the reward given for the difficult task and that the experiment group would show a greater preference for the chosen chocolate-bar. No support was found for these hypotheses. However a... (More)

No support was found for these hypotheses. However a relationship was found between choice of chocolate-bar and the preference shown on IAT. In addition degree of self-involvement seemed to be decreased for participants in the experiment condition. Key words: implicit association test, IAT, implicit attitudes, cognitive dissonance, self-involvement, post-decision consolidation, intrinsic motivation, automatic processes. (Less)
