How to Study Choice-Induced Attitude Change: Strategies for Fixing the Free-Choice Paradigm

Social and Personality Psychology Compass, 2010
Abstract The theory of cognitive dissonance has been among the most influential theories in social psychology for the last 50 years. Support for the theory has come primarily from three experimental paradigms: free‐choice, induced compliance, and effort justification. Recently, Chen and Risen (2010,

Calorie restriction inhibits relapse behaviour and preference for alcohol within a two-bottle free choice paradigm in the alcohol preferring (iP) rat

Physiology and Behavior, 2013
Among its many beneficial effects, calorie restriction (CR) has also been found to reduce anxiety related behavior in the rodent. With heightened levels of stress and anxiety implicated as a key precipitating factor of relapse and alcohol addiction, it was found that a 25% CR in addition to inducing anxiolytic effects also had the capacity to reduce ...

Comparison of preferences for object properties in the rat using paired- and free-choice paradigms

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2008
Abstract A common method for testing preference for objects is to determine which of a pair of objects is approached first in a paired-choice paradigm. In comparison, many studies of preference for environmental enrichment (EE) devices have used paradigms in which total time spent with each of a pair of objects is used to determine preference.

Reduction of ethanol intake by corticotropin-releasing factor receptor-1 antagonist in “heavy-drinking” mice in a free-choice paradigm

Psychopharmacology, 2015
We hypothesized that the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) system is hyperresponsive in animals with high ethanol intake, which exhibits a reduction of ethanol intake when administered with a CRF1 receptor antagonist.Outbred Swiss mice were subjected to a long-term, three-bottle, free-choice paradigm (5 and 10 % [v/v] ethanol and water) that ...

Naloxone decreases ethanol consumption within a free choice paradigm in rats

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1988
The effect of subcutaneous naloxone administration on the consumption of a weak ethanol solution in rats on the three consecutive days (testing days) was investigated using a behavioral paradigm which includes a first forced ethanol exposure (conditioning day) followed by a two-bottle ethanol/water choice procedure.

Dissonance-induced false memories: Evidence from a free-choice paradigm

Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 2014
People often misremember the past as consistent with the present. Recent research using an induced-compliance paradigm has revealed that cognitive dissonance is one mechanism that can underlie this memory distortion. We sought to replicate and extend this finding using a free-choice paradigm: Participants made either an easy or a difficult choice ...

A novel placebo-controlled clinical study design without ethical concerns – The free choice paradigm

Medical Hypotheses, 2012
All doubled-blinded and placebo-controlled randomized drug trials carry the ethical limitation that up to 50% of patients are treated by an inert placebo pill for a prolonged period of time, and that treatment effects of the drug have to be separated from unspecific (placebo) effects that also occur in the drug arm of the treatment.

Religious concept activation attenuates cognitive dissonance reduction in free-choice and induced compliance paradigms

The Journal of Social Psychology, 2019
Past research suggests that religion imbues people with a sense of certainty - via an increase in personal control, by providing meaning in life, or by activating associated norms. Based on findings suggesting that uncertainty and cognitive dissonance share many underlying features, we investigated whether thinking about religion, either situationally ...

Time‐Dependent Alterations in Ethanol Intake in Male Wistar Rats Exposed to Short and Prolonged Daily Maternal Separation in a 4‐Bottle Free‐Choice Paradigm

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2006
Background: Previous studies have shown that maternal separation can be used in animal studies of early environmental influence on adult ethanol intake. These studies have shown that short daily separations result in low ethanol intake, whereas prolonged separations relate to an enhanced risk for a high ethanol intake. The aim of the present study was

Caffeine promotes ethanol drinking in rats. Examination using a limited-access free choice paradigm.

Alcohol (Fayetteville, N.Y.), 2000
There is growing evidence that caffeine may alter the pattern of intake of a variety of drugs. The present study was designed to assess the effect of caffeine pretreatment on voluntary ethanol consumption. The first experiment examined the effect of caffeine on the acquisition of ethanol intake in a limited-access-choice procedure in which water and ...
