Harnessing Anger to Persuade: The Moderating Roles of Retributive Efficacy and Prior Attitudes

Figures & data

Figure 1. Interactions between the offense manipulation and initial attitudes.

Bands represent 95% confidence intervals.

Figure 2. Interactions between self-reported anger toward the industry and efficacy beliefs.

Bands represent 95% confidence intervals. In the middle figure, anger becomes negatively associated with policy support at especially high levels of issue efficacy ($\ge$5.53), but this negative relationship is not apparent here because, for the sake of consistency, the figures all display efficacy levels based on standard deviations from the mean.
