Abstract

Resumen El objetivo principal de este estudio exploratorio fue examinar las diferencias en actitudes sexuales entre personas adultas con Altas Capacidades Intelectuales (ACI) y otros participantes pertenecientes a la Población General, en cuanto a su dotación Intelectual (PGI). La muestra estuvo compuesta por 126 personas (80 personas PGI y 46 ACI). Se administró a los participantes la escala ATSS (2005). Tanto los participantes, de la muestra PGI como los de ACI, mostraron actitudes tendentes al conservadurismo. Las comparaciones llevadas a cabo, considerando a todos los participantes (PGI y ACI), atendiendo a la edad o al Sexo mostraron que: (a) las personas más mayores informaron actitudes más liberales que los más jóvenes, quienes mostraron actitudes más conservadoras, y (b) los hombres obtuvieron valores más altos en erotofilia (una actitud más liberal) que las mujeres excepto en lo referente al tema del aborto, en el que ellas resultaron más liberales. Las comparaciones entre PGI y ACI mostraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el Factor que se refiere a la pornografía, resultando más conservadoras en este asunto las personas ACI.

Abstract An exploratory study was carried out with the main objective of examining the differences in the sexual attitudes of gifted persons (ACI) and other participants from the General Population, in terms of their Intelligence (PGI). The sample contained 126 people (80 PGI people and 46 ACI). Participants completed the ATSS scale (2005). All participants in the sample showed attitudes tending towards conservatism. The comparisons carried out, on the basis of age or gender, showed that: a) older people reported more liberal attitudes than younger people, who were more conservative, and b) men had higher values in erotophilia (a more liberal attitude) than women, with the exception of abortion, in which women were more liberal. The comparisons between PGI and ACI showed statistically significant differences in the Factor that refers to pornography, with ACI people being more conservative about this issue.

Attitudes and attitude change.

Leandre Fabrigar, Duncan R Petty, L R Fabrigar (1997)

We review empirical and conceptual developments over the past four years (1992-1995) on attitudes and persuasion. A voluminous amount of material was produced concerning attitude structure, attitude change, and the consequences of holding attitudes. In the structure area, particular attention is paid to work on attitude accessibility, ambivalence, and the affective versus cognitive bases of attitudes. In persuasion, our review examines research that has focused on high effort cognitive processes (central route), low effort processes (peripheral route), and the multiple roles by which variables can have an impact on attitudes. Special emphasis is given to work on cognitive dissonance and other biases in message processing, and on the multiple processes by which mood influences evaluations. Work on the consequences of attitudes focuses on the impact of attitudes on behavior and social judgments.
