Tel Aviv UniversityThe authors explored the hypothesis that the relationship between need for structure and cognitivestructuring behavior is moderated by the ability to achieve cognitive structure (AACS). Need forstructure is defined as the preference to use cognitive structuring as a means to achieve certainty.AACS refers to the extent to which individuals are able to use information-processing processes(cognitive structuring or piecemeal) consistent with ihe level of their need for structure. The authorssuggested that only under high AACS would there be a positive correlation between need for structureand cognitive structuring behavior. In contrast, under low AACS the correlation would be negative.To examine this hypothesis, the authors used different operationalizations of the need for structure,AACS, and cognitive structuring behavior. The results of the 5 studies in which this was doneconfirmed the hypothesis
