Abstract

This is a revision of TR#18. It was published by the authors (1969)
This TR builds on work reported in TR#32. It reports a second experiment investigating how two status characteristics affect expectations and power and prestige. The theoretical goal was to further compare predictions based on combining of all status information to predictions assuming a cognitive “balancing” that ignores some contradictory information. Results again (as in TR#32) showed strong support for combining, which was incorporated in the theory extension (Berger et al. 1974), and later elaborated in the model as Assumption 4 in the general theory (Berger et al. 1977).
