🚨 New paper alert, at @jexpsocpsych.bsky.social:

Classic person perception models argue that group information (e.g., group valence) dominates impression formation, especially in less-than-optimal conditions. But is this really the case?

In this new research, we found that truth beliefs can be successfully conditioned:

Statements - true and false - are rated as more true after their pairing with positive than negative pictures.

This effect bridges research on evaluative conditioning and misinformation.

In this research, we found that individuating information dominates social group information when forming impressions about members of newly learned social groups. This dominance was observed both on self-reports *and* more automatic measures *despite* conditions favoring group-level impressions.

Demand Characteristics

"Demand artifacts need not be seen only as a vexing problem. Precisely because they are so conceptually and methodologically challenging, they represent an opportunity for methodological and theoretical development."
