Undergraduate volunteers (n = 134) were randomly assigned in a 2 × 2 design that manipulated type of crime (rape vs. robbery) and perpetrator motivation (anger vs. desire). After reading one of the crime scenarios, participants responded to a series of attitude items regarding responsibility for the crime, assigned blame to agents mentioned in the scenario, and assigned a prison sentence to the perpetrator. A two-way ANOVA showed a significant interaction of motivation and crime (p = .026), with the victim rated least responsible in the anger-motivated rape scenario. Likewise, the assignment of blame produced a significant interaction of motivation and crime (p = .034); the victim was blamed the least in the anger-motivated rape scenario. Although the perpetrator was viewed as more responsible for the crime of rape than robbery (p = .022) and received a significantly longer sentence for rape (p < .001), perpetrator motivation did not affect perceptions of the perpetrator's responsibility for either crime. These results stand in contrast to those of Mitchell, Angelone, Kohlberger, and Hirschman (2009) and suggest their findings may have been the result of homophobic statements by the perpetrator rather than anger per se.
本科志愿者（n=134）被随机分配到 2×2 设计中，该设计操纵了犯罪类型（强奸与抢劫）和犯罪者动机（愤怒与欲望）。在阅读了其中一个犯罪场景后，参与者回答了一系列关于犯罪责任、将责任归咎于场景中提到的代理人以及对犯罪者判处监禁的态度项目。双向方差分析显示动机和犯罪之间存在显著的交互作用（p=0.026），在愤怒驱动的强奸场景中，受害者被评为最不负责任。同样，责备的分配产生了动机和犯罪之间的显著交互作用（p=0.034）；在愤怒驱动的强奸场景中，受害者受到的责备最少。尽管强奸犯被认为对强奸犯罪比抢劫犯罪更有责任（p=0.022），并且因强奸被判处更长的刑期（p<0.001），但犯罪者的动机并没有影响对犯罪者对任何犯罪的责任的看法。这些结果与 Mitchell、Angelone、Kohlberger 和 Hirschman（2009）的结果形成对比，表明他们的发现可能是犯罪者的恐同言论而不是愤怒本身的结果。
