Building on the work of Inglehart and colleagues (e.g., Inglehart, 1971;Inglehart & Welzel, 2005), Welzel (2013) sets out a step-by-step theory explaining how democracies arise from processes of modernization. The intermediary stages in the causal chain he sets out explain the connection between action resources and emancipatory values. In short, Welzel provides strong evidence that people must first have the material, intellectual, and connective resources to exercise certain freedoms before they develop values that will motivate them to seek out those freedoms. While we are convinced by much of Welzel's argument, we also note a substantial Welzel's (2013) theory of Human Empowerment elucidates a step-by-step process in which individuals gain the means, motivation, and guarantees to exercise universal freedoms and civic agency. The human empowerment process is initiated with the attainment of action resources which provide people with the means to overcome constraints imposed by resource scarcity. With an increase in action resources comes an increase in existential security and the motivation to look beyond the fulfillment of physiological needs. Existential security encourages

“…Considerable interest in the concept of implicit attitudes has been shown over the past two decades, both in academic outlets (e.g., Banaji & Heiphetz, 2010; Gawronski & Payne, 2010; Jost, Pelham & Carvallo, 2002; Nosek, Hawkins, & Frazier, 2012; Petty, Fazio, & Brinol, 2008; Quillian, 2008; Wittenbrink & Schwartz, 2007) and in the popular media (Gladwell, 2005; Tierney, 2008a, 2008b; The Economist, 2012; Dateline NBC, 2007; Oprah.com, 2006). The term implicit attitude is generally used to refer to an attitude (evaluation or preference) that is inferred from indirect, performance-based procedures (most popularly the Implicit Association Test [IAT], Greenwald, McGhee, & Schwartz, 1998) that avoid the direct influence of deliberative processing.…”

Research on implicit attitudes has raised questions about how well people know their own attitudes. Most research on this question has focused on the correspondence between measures of implicit attitudes and measures of explicit attitudes, with low correspondence interpreted as showing that people have little awareness of their implicit attitudes. We took a different approach and directly asked participants to predict their results on upcoming IAT measures of implicit attitudes toward five different social groups. We found that participants were surprisingly accurate in their predictions. Across four studies, predictions were accurate regardless of whether implicit attitudes were described as true attitudes or culturally learned associations (Studies 1 and 2), regardless of whether predictions were made as specific response patterns (Study 1) or as conceptual responses (Studies 2–4), and regardless of how much experience or explanation participants received before making their predictions (Study 4). Study 3 further suggested that participants’ predictions reflected unique insight into their own implicit responses, beyond intuitions about how people in general might respond. Prediction accuracy occurred despite generally low correspondence between implicit and explicit measures of attitudes, as found in prior research. All together, the research findings cast doubt on the belief that attitudes or evaluations measured by the IAT necessarily reflect unconscious attitudes.

“…When we think about, perceive, or interact with someone, a critical determinant of our psychological response is the evaluative reaction elicited by that person (Allport, 1935; Banaji & Heiphetz, 2010). In the domain of intergroup relations, evaluations of outgroup members are often affected by general attitudes towards their social category, so much so that this group-based attitude may change our perception of that person's unique characteristics and behavior (Dovidio, Kawakami, & Gaertner, 2002; Sagar & Schofield, 1980).…”

Intoxicated prejudice: The impact of alcohol consumption on implicitly and explicitly measured racial attitudes

Recent research has shown that alcohol consumption can exacerbate expressions of racial bias by increasing reliance on stereotypes. However, little work has investigated how alcohol affects intergroup evaluations. The current work sought to address the issue in the context of the correspondence between implicit and explicit measures of anti-black attitudes. Participants were randomly assigned to consume an alcoholic (target BAC of 0.08%), placebo, or control beverage prior to completing implicit and explicit measures of racial attitudes. Although beverage condition did not affect prejudice levels on either measure, it did change the correlation between them. Implicitly measured attitudes significantly predicted explicit reports of prejudice and discrimination only for participants who consumed alcohol. We discuss the implications of our findings for debates regarding dissociations between implicit and explicit measures and the cultural phenomenon of intoxicated individuals attributing prejudiced statements to alcohol consumption rather than personal attitudes.
