Why do we need it??
People often do not understand their own beliefs, attitudes and behavioral
motives...
...let alone those of others..!
We need objective evidence to understand why people change their behavior
, How do we get this evidence?
Q1:
Are good- looking people seen as more or less intelligent as less good-looking
people?
How do you found out?
Just ask?.. (e.g., in a street survey)?
"Do you think that good-looking people are generally smarter than unattractive
people, or do you think is the other way around?" (="self report")
A1:
Good looking people are seen as more intelligent, nicer, more outgoing
Effect: more positive responses, credibility, reliability
Effect: more persuasive!
Effect: better (paid) jobs, nicer partners...
Effect good vs. bad-looking
(perceptions!)
This is why we run experiments!
We can manipulate the independent variable
-E.g., good vs. less good looking
We can measure its effects on the dependent variable(s)
Eg., perceived intelligence
Street survey:
, Probably no relations attractiveness intelligence:
People no not admit that they think there is relationship (political
correctness/ social desirability)
People are not aware that they perceived a relationship
