Generalization of dissonance reduction: Decreasing prejudice through induced compliance.
Abstract
Three studies demonstrated that induced compliance can change socially significant attitudes and that the change generalizes to broader beliefs. White college students wrote an essay endorsing a proBlack policy that was costly to Whites. In Experiments 1 and 2, attitudes and general beliefs about Blacks became more favorable in both high- and low-choice conditions, provided publicity of the essay was high. Overall, choice and publicity had additive effects on attitude change. Some highchoice Ss wrote only semipositive (semicompliant) essays and did not change their essay attitudes. Yet their beliefs about Blacks still became more favorable. In Experiment 3, racial ambivalence, but not prior attitude, predicted essay compliance (positive or semipositive essay). Ambivalent Ss were more likely to comply than were less ambivalent Ss

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
