Observer Bias: An Interaction of Temperament Traits with Biases in the Semantic Perception of Lexical Material
- 2014
Psychology
Two studies investigating differences between groups contrasted by 12 temperament traits suggest that people's estimations of lexical material related to human behavior have emotionality, language- and dynamical capacities-related biases and therefore are unreliable, questions the validity of the lexical approach as a method for the objective study of stable individual differences.
