Not all happy people are lazy or stupid: evidence of systematic processing in happy moods

Article Abstract:

The hypotheses of association of happy moods with heuristic processing style and sad moods with a systematic processing style were scrutinized and a study was conducted on the revisions of the model affect-as-information (AAI) and the mood-and-general knowledge (MAGK). The results support the revision of AAI model and suggest that happiness may lead to biased systematic processing.
