在解释个人如何评价政治信息和形成政治偏好方面，没有什么因素比党派偏见更有力。然而，几乎所有关于党派偏见对偏好形成的影响的研究都忽视了社会环境的关键作用。在这项研究中，我研究了社会环境如何从根本上改变党派偏见对偏好的影响。我证明，事实上，社会环境施加一个独立的影响偏好的形成，甚至比党派矛盾心理的影响更大。这些发现的核心含义是，展望未来，我们无法充分探讨公民如何在评估政治信息时应用他们的党派偏见，而不考虑个人所处的社会环境。
No factor appears more powerful in explaining how individuals evaluate political information and form political preferences than partisanship. Yet, virtually all work on the effects of partisanship on preference formation neglects the crucial role of social settings. In this study, I examine how social settings can fundamentally change the influence of partisanship on preferences. I demonstrate that, in fact, social settings exert an independent influence over preference formation-one that is even larger than the influence of partisan ambivalence. The central implication of these findings is that, going forward, we cannot fully explore how citizens apply their partisanship in evaluating political information without also accounting for the social settings in which individuals find themselves.
