CAETANO, António e VALA, Jorge. Effects of the social interaction context on social judgeability. Psicologia [online]. 1996, vol.11, n.1, pp.27-36. ISSN 0874-2049. https://doi.org/10.17575/rpsicol.v11i1.587.
The social judgeability model States that in order to give a social judgment, people need to feel that they are in a position to judge. To give a social judgment is not only a question of integrating individual and categorical information about the target. It also depends upon the relationship between the judges and their judgments. Within the pragmatic context surrounding any social judgment, perceivers have to consider its social validity following their theories about that relation. Some factors, may increase this sense of social validity. According to the social judgeability model, having status may induce people to assume the have sufficient information to make a social judgment. An experiment was conducted to test this hypothesis, manipulating the position status of the judges: higher, equal or lower than the alvo. Two groups of students have participated in this study (first group N=63, secong group N=60). Results show that subjects with higher position status reported greater confidence in their judgments relatively to other subjects. These results are discussed within the framework of impression formation and social judgeability.
