Wanting other attitudes: Actual–desired attitude discrepancies predict feelings of ambivalence and ambivalence consequences
• People can desire attitudes that differ in valence from their current attitude. • Actual–desired discrepancies lead people to feel ambivalent. • Discrepancies also reduce prediction of behavior and increase information interest. a b s t r a c t a r t i c l e i n f o The experience of attitudinal ambivalence (subjective ambivalence) is important because it predicts key consequences of attitude...
متن کاملValence asymmetries in attitude ambivalence.
Existing models of ambivalence suggest that as the number of conflicting reactions (e.g., attitude components) increases, so too does the experience of ambivalence. Interestingly, though, these models overwhelmingly assume that this relationship is independent of valence. Across 3 studies we observe that this effect is in fact heavily influenced by 2 established valence asymmetries: positivity ...
متن کاملThe complexity and ambivalence of immigration attitudes: ambivalent stereotypes predict conflicting attitudes toward immigration policies.
Americans' conflicted attitudes toward immigrants and immigration has stymied immigration reform for decades. In this article, we explore the nuanced nature of stereotypes about immigrants and how they relate to ambivalent attitudes toward immigrant groups and the disparate array of immigration policies that affect them. Using item response theory and multiple regression analysis, we identified...
متن کاملAmbivalence and certainty can interact to predict attitude stability over time
Article history: Received 31 August 2015 Revised 28 November 2015 Accepted 30 November 2015 Available online 2 December 2015 The ability of attitudinal ambivalence and certainty to individually predict an attitude's stability over time has received mixed support. We proposed that ambivalence and certainty moderate one another's relationship with temporal attitude stability. That is, we hypothes...
متن کاملImmune ambivalence
In addition to cytotoxic effects, anticancer agents can exert multiple immunomodulatory functions. We have recently described the molecular mechanisms whereby bleomycin can 1) promote endoplasmic reticulum stress, causing the immunogenic death of cancer cells and hence strengthening antitumor CD8+ T cell responses; and 2) induce the secretion of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ), which stimul...
