Previour work by Liu, Karasawa, and Weiner suggests that perceivers may draw more causal attribution for positive emotions than for negative emotions. If so, then perceivers may draw more inference spontaneously for positive emotions than for negative emotions. participants observed a short video of a target who displayed either happiness or sadness. In the first experiment, half of the participants who viewed each of these behaviours were instructed to diagnose the target's disposition and half were instructured to diagnose the target's situation. Results revealed that although participants who viewed sadness drew only the inference consistent with their instructions, participants who viewed happiness drew both dispositional and situational inferences regardless of their instructions. In a second experiment, participants were instructed to diagnose the behaviour of a target who displayed either happiness or sadness. Results revealed that perceivers of happy behaviour drew inferences spontaneously. Implications are discussed.
