Informed by negativity bias and partisan motivated processing, an online experiment (N = 710) tested how past moral behaviors affect feelings of elevation and disgust across in-group and out-group politicians. Results revealed that past immoral behavior had a slightly larger effect on moral emotions than past altruistic behavior, in line with the predictions of negativity bias. Effects of moral behavior on elevation and disgust were consistent across Republican and Democratic politicians, possibly suggesting that partisan motivated processing is context dependent.

当行李带来灵感时：先前的道德过错如何影响举止和厌恶的感觉

在消极偏见和党派动机的处理下，一个在线实验（N = 710）测试了过去的道德行为如何影响集团内和集团外政客的提升和厌恶感。结果表明，过去的不道德行为对道德情感的影响要比过去的利他行为稍大，这与消极偏见的预测一致。在共和党和民主党政客中，道德行为对举止和厌恶的影响是一致的，这可能表明党派动机的处理过程取决于上下文。
