Peer reviewedWyer, Robert S., Jr.; Srull, Thomas K. – Psychological Review, 1986

The model focuses on both input and output variables that have been ignored in the development of most other cognitive theories. Unique predictions of the model and empirical evidence bearing on them are discussed. (Author/LMO)
