The Pictorial Attitude Implicit Association Test for Need for Affiliation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Pictorial Attitude Implicit Association Test (PA-IAT) has recently been developed as a new measure of need for power. This study aims to extend the scope of the PA-IAT to need for affiliation. In line with implicit motive theory, results show that the need for affiliation PA-IAT predicts non-declarative measures of motivation provided that need for affiliation is activated. We also obtained evidence for the discriminant validity of the measure. In general, our results confirm that the PA-IAT is a valid measure of implicit motives and show that the PA-IAT can also be used for the assessment of need for affiliation.

To consciously bolster behaviour that is disapproved by others (i.e., stigmatised behaviour) people may hold and report a favourable attitude toward the behaviour.
