Abstract: | The research investigates a personality variable, need for cognition, that increases the likelihood of attribute-based versus attitude-based processing and therefore, also affects the magnitude of the direction-of-comparison effect. Mediational analyses involving attribute recall and a useful new measure of analytic versus intuitive processing support this dual-process model. |
