Examines two conceptualizations of guilt and tests the hypothesis that high guilt women would experience more affective guilt following their exposure to sexual stimuli, while both low and high guilt women would experience more anxiety in a nonanonymous condition, e.g., in the presence of an experimenter. (Author/RK)

Attempts to provide a clear demonstration that selective attention to self can be determined by the degree to which feedback tends to provide positive or negative discrepancies. (Author/RK)

Two experiments attempted to directly assess the impact of self-other perspective on success and failure attributions for a variety of achievement-related situations. (Author/RK)

Two studies are reported which utilize a variety of achievement situations. It was hypothesized that subjects would spontaneously make attributions to ability, effort, luck and/or task difficulty in all these situations and that they would seek information of the types used in previous studies. (Author/RK)

Two experiments with college males examined the relationship between moral judgment and compliance in a modified Asch paradigm. Moral judgment was assessed using Kohlberg's dilemmas in one experiment and with Rest's Defining Issues in the second experiment. (Editor/RK)

Reports on a series of four experiments designed to study the importance of the variables of task structure and method of expectancy inducement in effecting systematic observer bias. (Author/RK)

Based on Zimbardo's (1970) theory of deindividuation and Duval and Wicklund's (1972) theory of "objective self-awareness" it was predicted that self-awareness would lead to a decrease in transgressive behavior. (Editor)

Examines whether self-consciousness, a personality disposition, affects self-attributions and attempts to replicate the research findings of Duval and Wicklund (1973) that self-awareness affects self-attributions. (Author/RK)

The hypothesis that the "self" concept is active in memory was tested in a series of recognition experiments involving first- and third-person sentences under several instructional conditions. Results were interpreted as congruent with the notion that the "self" can be seen as a cognitive structure with both a memory component…

Attempts to assess the effects of the mode and patterning of rehearsal on the acquisition and retention of modeled behaviors varying in organizational properties. (Author/RK)

When a person acts bizarre, out of role, or in other extreme ways, the perceiver often attributes to that person an extreme disposition, and the attribution is made with confidence. Two experiments were conducted to investigate a modification of this analysis of attribution (Jones & Davis, 1965). (Author/RK)

This research was undertaken to determine the factor structure of the 26-item revised versions of the Mehrabian (1968) Female and Male scales, a self-report instrument designed to measure achievement motivation. (Author/RK)

This research focused on the development and articulation of the attributes given by individuals in describing others. Of special interest was the generality with which the individual uses an attribute to characterize stimulus persons. (Editor)

Four experiments are presented that examine the affective and the informational explanations of risk-preference behavior. Experiments I and II provide a phenomenological analysis of the affective and informational determinants of choice behavior while Experiments III and IV investigates at what level of difficulty individuals most desire…

Investigates the effects of actors' expectancies about the outcome of an event (positive or negative) and observation of the actual outcome (positive or negative) while in a state of high or low objective self-awareness upon attribution of causality for the outcome. (Author/RK)
