Snyder, Tanke, and Berscheid III. Questions IV. Results V. The Case of CamillaCurrent Lecture I. Snyder, Tanke and Berscheid: Protocol- Mark Snyder was the driver for the investigation. The quote, “What is beautiful isgood,” is often considered today. People who view someone as physically attractive, automatically assumes they have better interior characteristics. People, who are better looking, as used in the study as well, receive better evaluations. When we see someone who is physically attractive, we often create our own reality of them.- Male and female strangers volunteered in pairs to participate in a study concerned with “the getting acquainted process,” where they did not see each other prior to the experiment.These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.- Participants were told they would have a 10 minute telephone conversation with their partner, which would be recorded separately. The experimenters wanted to see if men came across differently due to the attractiveness of the picture they were given. They also wanted to see how the guy’s treatment affected how the women responded.- Prior to the conversation, the investigator collected a background questionnaire and snapped a photo.- For females, the photo was replaced with a photo of a woman made up to look attractive (pretty) or unattractive (plain) and given to the men. The women were given the actual photos of the men. - Immediately prior to conversation, the investigator asked participants to complete a first impression questionnaire. II. Snyder, Tanke, and Berscheid - What is she like as a person? (questionnaire information) - During their phone conversation, He is wondering how she is and she is wondering how he is.III. Questions - Did the man’s belief about pretty = good affect their appraisal of the questionnaire information? (O’s belief yields O’s perception?) - Did the men’s appraisals affect how they behaved in the phone conversation? (O’s perception yields O’s response?) - Did the men’s conversation behavior affect the women’s conversation behavior? (O’s response yields A’s response). IV. Results - Men had more favorable first impressions of their partner when the more attractive picture was attached to the partner’s questionnaire profile (O’s belief yields O’s perception). She’s HOT (pretty photo) She’s NOT (plain photo)- Men were better conversationalists when they thought their partner was physically attractive (O’s perception yields O’s response). - The women were better conversationalists when their male partner believed thatthey were physically attractive (O’s response yields A’s response). - Overall, the men construed more favorably if they thought the woman was prettyand they were more engaged in the conversation. - The women had no idea that a replacement picture had been used. V. The Case of Camilla - Camilla was a childhood friend of Rex’s that grew up in the same neighborhood as him. Her parents were college graduates and were hardly ever home. Her father had a fetish with cabinets and tore all the cabinets out of their home, which was also the nicest home in the neighborhood. When Camilla was younger, before school started, she was just another normal child, so it seemed. Once school started, Camilla began to get picked on as a kid. She stood out from the other children and was a little “different.” She wore her mother’s clothes to school and did not socialize with the other children. When she reached middle school, you could find her carrying around a stack of romance novels instead of school books or her school work.Parents and teachers even judged her, but they did not do anything to help her. Camilla eventually dropped out of school and Rex hasn’t seen her since. Did Camilla experience a self-fulfilling prophecy by becoming what the children thought of her? As weird, different,
