(Byrne & Nelson)Īsch and Kelley’s findings formed the basis of the hypothesis. Essentially, the social traits of an individual were significant with a person rating and also the tendency to like a person depended on the groups’ conditions. The participants involved and the group’s condition affected the person’s ratings. As per the group’s conditions, those who participated were told the person is either warm or cold and the other hand neither warm not cold. The participants were able to rate their personal characteristics’ and those of the fictitious persons.
