Let’s Not Tempt Fate
This article examines individuals’ likelihood of engaging in future health prediction as a function of their fatalism, future time orientation, superstition, and history of chronic disease. Using a multistage cluster sample of 33 urban cities in Turkey, we asked respondents ( N = 1,467), to report their past and current health and predict their future (expected) health status (i.e., future self-rated health). While less than 1% failed to report p…
Effectiveness of source‐monitoring training in reducing halo error and negativity bias in a performance appraisal setting
The goal of the present study was to examine the effectiveness of a source‐monitoring procedure in reducing halo error and negativity bias in a performance appraisal setting. Participants watched videotaped performance segments of an instructor presumably taking place over a school year ( N = 126). Then, participants in the source‐monitoring training condition received instructions teaching them how to differentiate memories that evoke detailed r…

Who does not get screened? A simple model of the complex relationships in mammogram non-attendance
With increasing mammogram rates, identifying attributes of non-attending women entails going beyond differences in demographic groups to reveal complex interactions among personality attributes. In this study, we analyzed survey data from 474 women aged 41 years and older using decision trees. By incorporating personality, religiousness, and age, we were able to correctly classify 42.9 percent of non-attenders compared to 4.4 percent with logisti…
Cultural Differences in Attitudes Toward Action and Inaction
The current research examined whether nations differ in their attitudes toward action and inaction. It was anticipated that members of dialectical East Asian societies would show a positive association in their attitudes toward action/inaction. However, members of non-dialectical European-American societies were expected to show a negative association in their attitudes toward action/inaction. Young adults in 19 nations completed measures of dial…
Influences of social power and normative support on condom use decisions
A meta-analysis of 58 studies involving 30,270 participants examined how study population and methodological characteristics influence the associations among norms, control perceptions, attitudes, intentions and behaviour in the area of condom use. Findings indicated that control perceptions generally correlated more strongly among members of societal groups that lack power, including female, younger individuals, ethnic-minorities and people with…
The Sleeper Effect in Persuasion
A meta-analysis of the available judgment and memory data on the sleeper effect in persuasion is presented. According to this effect, when people receive a communication associated with a discounting cue, such as a noncredible source, they are less persuaded immediately after exposure than they are later in time. Findings from this meta-analysis indicate that recipients of discounting cues were more persuaded over time when the message arguments …
Affect as information in persuasion
Three studies examined the implications of a model of affect as information in persuasion.According to this model, extraneous affect may have an influence when message recipients exert moderate amounts of thought, because they identify their affective reactions as potential criteria but fail to discount them as irrelevant.However, message recipients may not use affect as information when they deem affect irrelevant or when they do not identify th…
