Internet Recruiting
In this study, the authors investigate the effects of two web site design features on prospective applicants' evaluations of a hiring company's online recruitment image. A total of 175 students navigated one of four web sites to locate and review a job advertisement. Participants visited a web site that was easy or difficult to surf and viewed a job ad that was presented in bullets or paragraphs of text. Afterward, they completed a survey that me…
Attitudes toward Masturbation
105 male and 123 female college students were shown photographs of college women varying in attractiveness. Subjects were asked to identify the photograph they considered most attractive, the one they felt was of the woman most likely to be a virgin, and the one they felt was of the woman most likely to masturbate. All subjects selected as most attractive one of the photographs rated as high in attractiveness in prior research. When asked to sele…
Complexity of Effects of Personal Space
Results from two studies failed to replicate the finding that attitude change is a direct function of distance and provided further evidence that personal space is a complex and multidimensional variable. The exact effect of personal space seems dependent upon its interactions with other factors
Biased Attitudes toward Females as Indicated by Ratings of Intelligence and Likeability

Furthermore, females acting in an inappropriate sex-role manner, such as being high assertive, will be evaluated as even less intelligent and likeable than males. A total of 643 undergraduates viewed vide…
Associative Learning and Differential Information in Knowledge of Results
The hypothesis is tested that the greater S ‘s uncertainty concerning his response in paired-associate learning, the greater is the amount of “information” (in the information-theory sense) contained in knowledge of results, and hence the greater the amount of learning. An exploratory experiment confirmed the hypothesis at the .05 level
