Justin Kruger Evans, Ralph Matthew 2015-09-25T20:38:55Z 2015-09-25T20:38:55Z 10000-01-01 2004 2004 It is proposed that people associate validity with positivity and invalidity with negativity and that these associations make people more likely to judge information to be valid when experiencing positive affect than when experiencing negative affect. In Experiment l, participants' responses on an Implicit Association Test (IAT) demonstrated strong associations between positivity and validity and between negativity and invalidity. In Experiment 2, participants primed with positive affect were more likely than participants primed with negative affect to assess statements as valid. This experiment also suggests that an affect-priming mechanism is responsible for the impact of affect on validity judgments. The implications of these findings for self-serving judgments and for processing fluency phenomena are discussed. Made available in DSpace on 2015-09-25T20:38:55Z (GMT).
