Wiki Version:
The original results section reads as follows: "We predicted that decline in participants’ own physical abilities would be associated with perceptions of increased recklessness of other drivers, but only when participants made these judgments about other drivers without first considering the changes in their own physical abilities. Indeed, focusing on the external-change first condition, the more participants’ own physical abilities had declined the greater increase they perceived in the recklessness of other drivers, r(43)= -.30, p<.05. However, when participants were asked about change in their own reflexes first, the correlation between reported self-change and perceived external change was no longer significant, r(43)= -.02, p>.1. Further, inducing participants to take decline in their own abilities into account before judging changes in other drivers significantly reduced their perceptions of increased aggressiveness in other drivers (M=1.07, SD=1.79), relative to when participants made judgments about other drivers first (M=1.95, SD=1.73), t(88)= 2.39, p<.05. The order manipulation did not influence participants’ perceptions of decline in their own driving abilities (external-change first: M=-0.24, SD=1.23; self-change first: M=-0.37 SD=1.47), t(88)=0.43, p>.1." (Eibach et al., 2012, p. 200). As such, we will run the following replication analysis. First, ratings on the two self-ratings and two other-ratings will be averaged to create an index of perceived change. The crucial test is therefore self-ratings as the DV with order (first vs. second) as the IV. This will be tested using the following code: T-TEST GROUPS=otherfirst(0 1) /MISSING=ANALYSIS /VARIABLES=selfchange /CRITERIA=CI(.95). **References** Eibach, R. P., Libby, L. K., & Ehrlinger, J.
