   Journal = {Current Directions in Psychological Science},
   Volume = {15},
   Pages = {198-202},
   Year = {2006},
   Abstract = {Habits are response dispositions that are activated
             automatically by the context cues that co-occurred with
             responses during past performance. Experience-sampling diary
             studies indicate that much of everyday action is
             characterized by habitual repetition. We consider various
             mechanisms that could underlie the habitual control of
             action, and we conclude that direct cueing and motivated
             contexts best account for the characteristic features of
             habit responding—in particular, for the rigid repetition
             of action that can be initiated without intention and that
             runs to completion with minimal conscious control. We
             explain the utility of contemporary habit research for
             issues central to psychology, especially for behavior
             prediction, behavior change, and self-regulation.},

   Title = {Cognitive dissonance in groups: The consequences of
             disagreement},
   Journal = {Journal of Personality and Social Psychology: Attitudes and
             Social Cognition},
   Volume = {88},
   Pages = {22-37},
   Year = {2005},
   Abstract = {As L. Festinger (1957) argued, the social group is a source
             of cognitive dissonance as well as a vehicle for reducing
             it. That is, disagreement from others in a group generates
             dissonance, and subsequent movement toward group consensus
             reduces this negative tension. The authors conducted 3
             studies to demonstrate group-induced dissonance. In the
             first, students in a group with others who ostensibly
             disagreed with them experienced greater dissonance
             discomfort than those in a group with others who agreed.
             Study 2 demonstrated that standard moderators of dissonance
             in past research—lack of choice and opportunity to
             self-affirm, similarly reduced dissonance discomfort
             generated by group disagreement. In Study 3, the dissonance
             induced by group disagreement was reduced through a variety
             of interpersonal strategies to achieve consensus, including
             persuading others, changing one’s own position, and
             joining an attitudinally congenial group.},

   Title = {Changing circumstances, disrupting habits},
   Journal = {Journal of Personality and Social Psychology: Attitudes and
             Social Cognition},
   Volume = {88},
   Pages = {918-933},
   Year = {2005},
   url = {http://www.apa.org/monitor/jun05/habits.html},
   Abstract = {The present research investigated the mechanisms guiding
             habitual behavior, specifically, the stimulus cues that
             trigger habit performance. When usual contexts for
             performance change, habits cannot be cued by recurring
             stimuli, and performance should be disrupted. Thus, the
             exercising, newspaper reading, and TV watching habits of
             students transferring to a new university were found to
             survive the transfer only when aspects of the performance
             context did not change (e.g., participants continued to read
             the paper with others). In some cases, the disruption in
             habits also placed behavior under intentional control so
             that participants acted on their current intentions. Changes
             in circumstances also affected the favorability of
             intentions, but changes in intentions alone could not
             explain the disruption of habits. Furthermore, regardless of
             whether contexts changed, nonhabitual behavior was guided by
             intentions.},

   Journal = {Psychological Bulletin},
   Volume = {129},
   Pages = {119-138},
   Year = {2003},
   Abstract = {Two research syntheses evaluate the effects on attitudes of
             forewarning of an influence appeal. In general, warnings
             appeared to threaten people's attitudes or their
             self-images, and warning impact depended on which aspect of
             the self was threatened. When the topic of the appeal was
             involving and concerned immediate outcomes or when the
             appeal was actually delivered, recipients appeared to focus
             on the potential threat to their attitudes, and they
             responded defensively by cognitively bolstering their own
             views and resisting the appeal. However, warnings of appeals
             on less involving topics generated agreement before the
             appeal was delivered, presumably because these warnings
             alerted people to the self-image threat of being gullible
             and preemptive agreement reduced this threat.},

   Title = {A cross-cultural analysis of the behavior of women and men:
             Implications for the origin of sex differences},
   Journal = {Psychological Bulletin},
   Volume = {129},
   Pages = {699-727},
   Year = {2002},
   Abstract = {This article evaluates theories of the origins of sex
             differences in human behavior. It reviews the cross-cultural
             evidence on the behavior of women and men in nonindustrial
             societies, especially the activities that contribute to the
             sex-typed division of labor and patriarchy. To explain the
             cross-cultural findings, the authors consider social
             constructionism, evolutionary psychology, and their own
             biosocial theory. Supporting the biosocial analysis, sex
             differences derive from the interaction between the physical
             specialization of the sexes, especially female reproductive
             capacity, and the economic and social structural aspects of
             societies. This biosocial approach treats the psychological
             attributes of women and men as emergent given the evolved
             characteristics of the sexes, their developmental
             experiences, and their situated activity in
             society.},

   Title = {Attitude change: Persuasion and social influence},
   Journal = {Annual Review of Psychology},
   Volume = {50},
   Pages = {539-570},
   Year = {2000},
   Abstract = {This chapter reviews empirical and theoretical developments
             in research on social influence and message-based
             persuasion. The review emphasizes research published during
             the period from 1996–1998. Across these literatures, three
             central motives have been identified that generate attitude
             change and resistance. These involve concerns with the self,
             with others and the rewards/punishments they can provide,
             and with a valid understanding of reality. The motives have
             implications for information processing and for attitude
             change in public and private contexts. Motives in persuasion
             also have been investigated in research on attitude
             functions and cognitive dissonance theory. In addition, the
             chapter reviews the relatively unique aspects of each
             literature: In persuasion, it considers the cognitive and
             affective mechanisms underlying attitude change, especially
             dual-mode processing models, recipients' affective
             reactions, and biased processing. In social influence, the
             chapter considers how attitudes are embedded in social
             relations, including social identity theory and
             majority/minority group influence.},
