Abstract

The present study investigated how social exclusion/inclusion and individuals' causal attribution affect social information processing and subsequent behavior. A total of 60 Korean college students participated in a study that employed a 2(Social Exclusion/Social Inclusion) X 2(Internal Attribution/External Attribution) between subjects design. Drawing on previous research demonstrating selective memory for social information on the part of the excluded (Gardner, Pickett, & Brewer, 2000), the present study contrasted two opposing viewpoints regarding how individuals process social information after experiencing social inclusion or exclusion. Consistent with the research hypothesis, result indicated that selective memory for social information was pronounced more when individuals experienced social inclusion rather than social exclusion. Moreover, a significant interaction effect indicated that the included assigned higher levels of punishment to a target person than did the excluded in the external attribution condition. In contrast, no difference was found between the included and the excluded in the internal attribution condition. These results were interpreted in terms of an assimilative effect in social information processing. Implications of the study and suggestions for future research are also discussed.
