Title: An evolutionist approach to information bipolarity: Representations and affects in human cognition.
Authors: Raufaste, Eric1 raufaste@univ-tlse2.fr, Vautier, Stéphane2
Source: International Journal of Intelligent Systems. Aug2008, Vol. 23 Issue 8, p878-897. 20p. 3 Diagrams, 1 Chart, 1 Graph.
Subjects: Bipolarity (International relations), International relations, Psychological research, Social science research, Human experimentation in psychology
Abstract: This paper investigates the psychological plausibility of the bipolarity concept, i.e., that positive and negative kinds of information are treated differently. Sections 2 and 3 review relevant investigations of the representational and affective systems in the experimental psychology literature. Section 4 provides new data supporting the idea that even when considering how affective changes occur, a certain level of independence exists between the positive and negative sides of affect. Together the studies reported here strongly support the psychological plausibility of bipolarity: Positive and negative kinds of information are not processed in the same way whichever domain is considered, preferences (affect) or beliefs (mental categories). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals Inc.
