The aim of this study was to clarify how positive and negative emotions are related to the common attitude-change effect in cognitive dissonance research. Drawing on appraisal theories of emotion, and emotion-regulation research, we predicted that negative emotions would be inversely related to attitude change, whereas positive emotions would be positively related to attitude change in the induced compliance paradigm. In two studies, participants (N = 44; N = 106) wrote a counter-attitudinal essay under the perception of high choice, and were later asked to state their emotions in relation to writing this essay, as well as to state their attitude. Results confirmed the predictions, even when controlling for baseline emotions. These findings untangled a previously unresolved issue in dissonance research, which in turn shows how important emotion theories are for the understanding of cognitive dissonance processes.
本研究旨在阐明积极情绪和消极情绪与认知失调研究中常见的态度改变效应有何关系。本研究借鉴情绪的评价理论和情绪调节研究，预测在诱导遵从范式中，消极情绪与态度改变呈负相关，而积极情绪与态度改变呈正相关。在两项研究中，参与者（N=44；N=106）在高选择感的认知下撰写一篇与自己观点相悖的文章，之后要求他们在写作这篇文章时表达自己的情绪，并陈述自己的态度。结果证实了这些预测，即使在控制基线情绪的情况下也是如此。这些发现解决了认知失调研究中一个先前未解决的问题，这反过来又表明情绪理论对理解认知失调过程有多么重要。
