Upward versus downward anchoring in frequency judgments of social facts
Frequency estimation of social facts in two methods of judgment elicitation was investigated. In the “narrow-range” condition, subjects answered questions in the format: “Out of 100 incidents, how many belong to category X?” In the “wide-range” condition, the frequency for the same event was assessed with respect to “Out of 10,000.” Judged frequencies in the wide-range condition were divided by...
متن کاملUpward Morley's theorem downward
By a celebrated theorem of Morley, a theory T is א1-categorical if and only if it is κ-categorical for all uncountable κ. In this paper we are taking the first steps towards extending Morley’s categoricity theorem “to the finite”. In more detail, we are presenting conditions, implying that certain finite subsets of certain א1-categorical T have at most one n-element model for each natural numbe...
متن کاملSocial comparison activity under threat: downward evaluation and upward contacts.
Social comparison processes include the desire to affiliate with others, the desire for information about others, and explicit self-evaluation against others. Previously these types of comparison activity and their corresponding measures have been treated as interchangeable. We present evidence that in certain groups under threat, these comparison activities diverge, with explicit self-evaluati...
متن کاملOptimal Self-esteem is Contingent: Intrinsic Versus Extrinsic and Upward Versus Downward Contingencies
We argue that noncontingent, unconditional self-esteem is not optimal but defensive. We introduce the concept of intrinsic contingency, where self-esteem is affected by whether one’s actions are self-congruent and conducive to personal growth. Whereas external contingencies, especially social and appearance, were negatively correlated with authenticity, self-compassion, and personal well-being,...
متن کاملComparison of Upward and Downward Generalizations in CF-Induction
CF-induction is a sound and complete procedure for finding hypotheses in full clausal theories. It is based on the principle of Inverse Entailment (IE), and consists of two procedures: construction of a bridge theory and generalization of it. There are two possible ways to realize the generalization task in CF-induction. The one uses a single deductive operator, called γ-operator, and the other...
