This research examines the impact of the compensation effect between the fundamental dimensions of warmth and competence on behavioral confirmation. In Experiment 1, participants were presented with 2 groups that varied on 1 of the 2 dimensions and asked to select the questions that they wanted to pose to learn more about the groups. Participants preferred to ask negative (positive) questions about the unmanipulated dimension to the high (low) group. In Experiment 2, participants rated the 2 groups on the basis of naïve people answers to those questions. As predicted, compensation emerged. Experiment 3 involved interactions among 3 participants, 1 interviewing the other 2 using the questions selected in Experiment 1. Ratings of targets' reactions again showed compensation.
本研究考察了热情和能力这两个基本维度之间的补偿效应对行为确认的影响。在实验1中,向参与者展示了在两个维度中的一个维度上存在差异的两组人,并要求他们选择想要提出的问题,以便更多地了解这两组人。参与者更倾向于向高(低)组询问关于未被操纵维度的负面(正面)问题。在实验2中,参与者根据普通人对这些问题的回答对两组人进行评分。正如预测的那样,出现了补偿效应。实验3涉及三名参与者之间的互动,其中一名参与者使用实验1中选择的问题对另外两名参与者进行访谈。对目标反应的评分再次显示出补偿效应。
