Abstract: Studies that have addressed questions concerning when framing effects are
likely to occur have produced mixed results. In this article we examine
how differences in personality factors influence a group–based framing
task. Specifically, when high collective importance individuals evaluated
a framing task involving their group no framing effects were observed. Different
results were obtained for low collective individuals. When low collective
individuals evaluated a task involving their group, the typical
framing effects were found. These results are interpreted in light of the dual
analytic-holistic analysis.
