人们的社会政策态度与他们对受这些政策影响的社会群体的情感反应是如何相关的？从基于威胁的角度来看。对某一群体的特殊情感——超越对该群体的普遍偏见——应该预测对影响该群体的政策的态度。128名参与者报告了他们对四种社会政策的支持程度、对每个受影响群体的一般和特定情感反应，以及该群体表面上构成的威胁。尽管在控制了特定情绪后，一般偏见无法预测每种政策态度，但在控制了一般偏见后，特定情绪确实显著地预测了每种政策态度。这些特定的情绪倾向于调解感知威胁和政策态度之间的预测关系，这些结果强调了评估特定群体间情绪与政治领域相关的好处(C) 2009 Elsevier Inc版权所有
How are people's social policy attitudes related to their affective reactions to the social groups affected by those policies? From a threat-based perspective. specific emotions toward a group-above and beyond general prejudice toward that group-should predict attitudes toward a policy affecting the group To test this. 128 participants reported their support far four social policies, their general and specific affective reactions to each affected group, and the threats ostensibly posed by that group Although general prejudice failed to predict each policy attitude after controlling for the specific emotions, Specific emotions did indeed significantly predict each policy attitude after controlling for general prejudice Moreover, these specific emotions tended to mediate predicted relationships between perceived threats and policy attitudes in all, these results highlight the benefits of assessing specific intergroup emotions as they relate to political arenas (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved
