The Power to Know What You Want: How Power Influences Preference Consistency
We hypothesize that power increases preference consistency. In three experiments, we show that power increase reliance on internal preferences compared to external cues, that power increases consistency between preferred product features and choices, and that power decreases transitivity violations. Future directions, theoretical implications, and practical implications are discussed.
