When a journalist and politician engage in deception detection: Effects of demeanor, refutation, and partisanship in combative media interviews

ABSTRACT When journalists accuse politicians of deception and politicians return fire, how do voters decide what to believe? Grounded on truth-default theory and visual primacy theory, this paper reports experiments with stimuli of interviews in which a journalist accuses a politician of deceptive evasion. In Study 1, we manipulate whether the journalist’s allegation is accurate. Voters seem unable to tell, basing their perceptions on the politician’s demeanor. In Study 2 we test the effect of a politician honestly refuting a dishonest journalist. Voters still attend to demeanor, not verbal message content. In Study 3 partisanship, verbal refutation, and nonverbal demeanor interact. Democratic voters respond more favorably to their politician refuting a journalist and are not misled by demeanor like Republicans.

Correlation of Sport Activities with Dismore Priminore to College Students of Sport Science Faculty Universitas Negeri Padang

Regular exercise and physical activity have been introduced as effective methods for preventing and treating dysmenorrhea. Exercise can increase the endorphin hormone which causes an increase in the recovery system and reduces the sympathetic system, resulting in a decrease in the effects of demeanor. The purpose of this study was to prove that there was correlation between sports and dysmenorrhea among students at the Faculty of Sport Science Universitas Negeri Padang. This research was an observational study. There were 38 female students of Universitas Negeri Padang who met the inclusion criteria during September to October 2019 filled out the questionnaire. The type of exercise data, frequency, duration and incidences of dysmenorrhea were obtained through interviews with questionnaires created specifically for this study. The Data was described in tabular form, Chi-square test and correlation data was analyzed using computer programs. The results showed that 27 samples, (10.26%) out of 38 study samples, did not have dysmenorrhea. In this study, p value> 0.05 or disapproved on the frequency, duration, and type of sports variables for dysmenorrhea at Universitas Negeri Padang. From this data, it can be concluded that there were no correlation beetween dysmenorrhea and sport among sport science students Universitas Negeri Padang.

The Effect of Demeanor on Drug Court Admission

Research on suspect and defendant demeanor in the juvenile and criminal justice systems has concentrated on arrest and the severity of sanctioning outcomes. This article examines demeanor at an earlier juncture in the system: juvenile drug court admission. Regression analysis of 76 juvenile drug court case files suggests that program admittance (i.e., potential system leniency through diversion) is largely a function of projected attitude and behavior. Those exhibiting favorable demeanor during intake and assessment are significantly more likely to be accepted into drug court as are those with a dual diagnosis. Implications of the findings are considered for continued system involvement.

DEMEANOR OR CRIME? WHY “HOSTILE” CITIZENS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE ARRESTED*

It is a criminological axiom that displays of hostility by citizens towards police officers directly increase the odds of arrest in police‐citizen encounters. This axiom rests on nearly three decades of observational research of interactions between police officers and citizens. Two features of this work, however, raise questions about the validity of findings that citizen demeanor independently affects police arrest decisions. First, although demeanor is conceptually defined as legally permissible behavior, measures of demeanor often include criminal conduct. Second, criminal conduct is not controlled adequately when the effects of demeanor on arrest are estimated. In an analysis employing a demeanor measure that does not confound crime and that controls for crime more comprehensively, it is found that displays of hostility which violate no laws do not increase the likelihood of arrest in and of themselves. The implications of this finding are discussed.

Status, Demeanor and Influence: An Empirical Reassessment

This study addresses the recent debate regarding the relative effects of status characteristics vis-a-vis demeanor on influence in task-oriented groups. A 2x2 x2 x2 factorial design was employed to test for the separate effects of demeanor, race and sex over two experimental time-blocks. Yielding to influence was the dependent measure. One hundred and sixty-two subjects were introduced via video monitors to (ostensible) partners whose physical and behavioral characteristics depicted the differing leyels of the independent variables of interest. The results show significant effects for both the race and demeanor variables, though the demeanor effect decayed over time.

Expectation-Based and Automatic Behavior: A Comment on Lee and Ofshe, and Berger and Zelditch

Task-oriented groups develop patterned interaction and organization in the form of dominance hierarchies. The question is, how is this uiequal distribution of participation and influence developed? Status characteristics and expectation states theory (Berger et al., 1966 and 1972; Berger et al., 1977; Berger et al., 1980) propose that cognitive activity (either above or below the level of conscious awareness) precedes such decisions. Relevant information about members' possible contributions to group goals is processed in a seemingly rational way so that dominance decisions can be made. Suppositions of differential abilities are often based on known status differences among members. Lee and Ofshe (1981) have questioned whether participants rely on status information. As an alternative, they propose a twoprocess theory in which the demeanor of group members is the key variable in determining the dominance hierarchy. This effect of demeanor on dominance decisions is assumed to occur rather automatically and below the level of awareness. No complex rational cognitive activity precedes such decisions. Rather, judgments about how the decisions were made are assumed to follow these decisions in apost-hoc manner and do not accurately identify demeanor as the key factor underlying the decisions.
