The effect of attitude dissimulation on attitude accessibility

Article Abstract:

Two experiments show that both dissimulation and truthful expression about attitudes enhance the recall of attitudes. Attitude dissimulation and attitude expression do not influence attitude change, attitude extremity or attitude certainty; thus those three factors do not mediate the effects of dissimulation and expression on attitude accessibility. The findings also show that attitude dissimulation does not automatically enhance the accessibility of genuine attitudes. The effect occurs only when the subjects are lying, which requies activation and recognition of their genuine attitudes.
