A note on salience of own preferences and the consensus effect
本文假设共识效应（人们高估自身偏好普遍性的倾向）的强度受自身偏好显著性的影响，通过改变偏好与信念的引出顺序来操纵显著性，但结果未发现显著性对效应强度的调节作用，仅确认了共识效应的稳健性。
In this paper, we hypothesize that the strength of the consensus effect, i.e., the tendency for people to overweight the prevalence of their own values and preferences when forming beliefs about others’ values and preferences, depends on the salience of own preferences. We manipulate salience by varying the order of elicitation of preferences and beliefs. Although our results confirm the existence of the consensus effect, we find no evidence of a difference between the two orders of elicitation. While our results highlight the robustness of the consensus effect, they also indicate that salience does not mediate the strength of this phenomenon.
