Making attitudes more accessible via rehearsal has been shown to ease decision making by speeding the act of choosing and increasing the correspondence between one's attitudes and choices (e.g., Fazio, 1995; Fazio et al., 1992; Fazio & Williams, 1986). These effects are central to decades of attitude research and are citation classics in social psychology. We report 25 studies (N = 6,162), conducted in a diverse and culturally inclusive set of samples and contexts, that shed light on the reproducibility of these seminal findings. We examined the effects of attitude accessibility on decision latency, on the self-reported readiness to make a decision, and on attitude-choice correspondence. Results showed that the effect of attitude accessibility on decision latency is highly reproducible across multiple methods and cultural contexts, and that the effect on attitude-choice correspondence also appears robust in choice contexts that parallel the original experiments but not in choice contexts that highlight the need to consider others' preferences. Effects on self-reported readiness to decide did not emerge. No robust role for culture was observed in moderating these effects, though the limitations of the studies temper these conclusions. In sum, we build on prior research by showing which types of effects are likely to be reliably influenced by attitude accessibility. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).

平易近人的态度在哪些方面可以简化决策？检查跨文化背景的可达性效果的可重复性。

通过排练使态度更容易理解已被证明可以通过加快选择行为并增加态度和选择之间的对应性来简化决策（例如，Fazio，1995；Fazio 等人，1992；Fazio 和 Williams，1986）。这些影响是数十年态度研究的核心，也是社会心理学的经典引文。我们报告了 25 项研究 (N = 6,162)，这些研究是在多元化且具有文化包容性的样本和背景下进行的，这些研究揭示了这些开创性发现的可重复性。我们研究了态度可及性对决策潜伏期、自我报告的决策准备度以及态度与选择对应关系的影响。结果表明，态度可及性对决策延迟的影响在多种方法和文化背景下具有高度可重复性，并且在与原始实验平行的选择环境中，对态度-选择对应关系的影响也显得很强大，但在强调需求的选择环境中则不然。考虑别人的喜好。对自我报告的决定准备程度的影响并未出现。尽管研究的局限性缓和了这些结论，但没有观察到文化在调节这些影响方面发挥强大的作用。总之，我们以先前的研究为基础，展示了哪些类型的影响可能受到态度可及性的可靠影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
