Level of Analysis as a Determinant of the Meaning of Nonverbal Behavior
Social Support in Absentia
An experiment was conducted to test the effectiveness of an absentee social supporter as a way of reducing conformity. Eighty female subjects responded in five-person groups. On the pretext of a mechanical failure in the apparatus, four group members gave answers on 11 trials while the subject observed but did not answer. The same series of 11 trials was then repeated (the apparatus having allegedly been repaired), with the subject answering in o…
Perceived persuasiveness as a function of response style
This experiment studied the effect of an individual's response style on different issues over a long period of time. A hypothetical situation depicted the repeated responses given by one person on a target issue and on four other issues for one year. The 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design varied consistency of the stimulus person's position on the target issue during the year (consistent or variable); his consistency on other issues during the year (cons…
Children as Teachers
Nonverbal Cues as Indicators of Verbal Dissembling
Sixty-three elementary school-age children in an experimental teaching session provided either genuine or dissembled verbal praise to a student (confederate). Nonverbal behavior of the subjects was analyzed both by trained coders and by naive observers. As hypothesized, nonverbal cues disclosed when the participants were dissembling. Dissembling participants smiled less, showed less pleasant mouth expressions, paused more, and were judged to be l…
Cognitive Learning in Children
Attribution of Ability
This experiment investigated observers' attribution of ability based on a student's performance. 115 subjects viewed a graphical representation of one of four patterns of alleged performance on a series of concept-formation exercises: success in the first half and failure in the second half, failure in the first half and success in the second half, success in both halves, or failure in both halves. In contrast to the typical finding of a primacy …
Categorization, belief similarity, and intergroup discrimination
On the attractiveness of forbidden objects
Toys were ranked for attractiveness by 15 preschool and 21 4th-grade children. After the initial ranking, the S was told that he could not play with one of the toys. Each toy was subsequently ranked a 2nd time. Results show a strong decrease in the attractiveness of the forbidden toy by preschoolers, but an increase in attractiveness was exhibited by 4th graders. Results suggest that a perceived association between an object's being forbidden and…

Psychological Factors in Poverty
Ordinal Position and Conformity
Role theory was applied to the problem of birth order and conformity to a same-sex peer group. Subjects were male and female college students from two-sibling families. Results showed that highest conformity was found for later-born females with a same-sex sibling, and least for later-born males with a same-sex sibling. An intermediate level of conformity was exhibited by laterborn subjects having cross-sex siblings. In the case of first-borns, n…

Biological maturation and social development
Social Support, Dissent and Conformity
The present study investigated the effect on conformity of direction and degree of dissent from the erroneous judgments of a simulated group. Results showed that in judging visual items, conformity was significantly reduced either by a dissenter giving the correct response or by a dissenter giving a response much more incorrect than the group's. On opinion items the presence of a veridical dissenter significantly reduced conformity, but the prese…

Effect of Extraneous Cognitive Activity on Dissonance Reduction
The hypothesis was rested that cognitive work in the form of reevaluation of alternatives is necessary for post-decision dissonance reduction. It was predicted that magnitude of dissonance reduction would be less when the relevant cognitive work was prevented by keeping the person cognitively occupied with an irrelevant task. Female Ss rated the attractiveness of art prints and were given a choice between two of them. During the post-decision per…

Note on Use of Drugs in Psychological Research
Influence on behavior of the powerful has been amply demonstrated (Beecher, 1955). T he placebo effect refers to the fact that a pharmacologically inert subscance often produces a significant behavioral change which apparently is artributable to S's cognitions and expecrations, i.e., the belief that he has received an active drug having a known effect. It should be recognized, however, that a strong effecc may often occur. For example, an active …
