Associating versus Proposing or Associating What We Propose: Comment on Gawronski and Bodenhausen
Albarracin, Dolores; Hart, William; McCulloch, Kathleen C.
Psychological Bulletin, v132 n5 p732-735 Sep 2006
This commentary on the article by B. Gawronski and G. V. Bodenhausen (see record 2006-10465-003) highlights the strengths of the associative-propositional evaluation model. It then describes problems in proposing a qualitative separation between propositional and associative processes. Propositional processes are instead described as associative. Propositions are ordered associations, whereas many other associations do not depend on the order of the involved elements. Implications of this alternative definition for the phenomenology of thought and for social psychology are discussed.
