调查了感知的能力或自我利益--以及时代精神如何影响少数群体的影响力，或者：莫斯科维奇的理论如何适用于实际的社会少数群体。利己主义观点预测，“单身”少数群体(仅在信仰上的偏离)比“双重”少数群体(类别成员身份也偏离)更有影响力，而能力观念则相反。此外，只有当时代精神支持少数派立场时，预计这两个少数派中的任何一个都会有影响力。在2(支持/反对时代精神)×3(单一/双重少数/对照)析因设计中，120名保守的美国男性本科生以6人为一组，讨论两个问题中的一个：堕胎(赞成)或死刑(反对时代精神)。研究结果支持利己主义观念：双重少数群体被认为比单一少数群体具有更强的自我利益，施加的影响较小。时代精神假说也得到了证实。讨论了潜在的归因过程和以往研究的生态效度。
Investigated how either perceived competency or self-interest-and Zeitgeist affect minority influence, or: how Moscovici's theory does apply to actual social minorities. The self-interest notion predicts that ‘single’ minorities (deviating only in terms of beliefs) are more influential than ‘double’ minorities (deviating also in category membership) while the competency notion predicts the reverse. Further, either minority is expected to be influential only when the Zeitgeist is in favour of the minority position. In a 2 (pro/anti Zeitgeist) × 3 (single/double minority/control) factorial design, 120 conservative male American undergraduates discussed in groups of six-including two either male (single minority) or female (double minority) consistently liberal con federates-one of two issues: abortion (pro-) or death penalty (anti- Zeitgeist). The results support the self-interest notion: double minorities are perceived as having a stronger self-interest and exerted less influence than single minorities. The Zeitgeist hypothesis is confirmed, too. The underlying attributional processes and the ecological validity of previous studies are discussed.
