Forgiving a transgressor is almost always a result of an interaction between cognitive, affective, and behavioral components. While each component is equally important in deciding to forgive, it appears that it has various underlying forces that require to be examined empirically - most especially, the victim has been provided loads of cognitive information. Thus, using the victim’s perspectives, this study conceptualizes the impact of the transgressor’s traits (e.g., prototypical and non-prototypical) in relation to the degree of transgression and its priming sequence. Study 1 with 43 college students answered a thought listing survey concerning transgressor’s traits when they consider forgiveness. Study 2 involved 100 college students to further examine these traits through prototypicality rating approach. Using factor analysis, traits found in study 1 were consistent with the trait factor loadings. Study 3 randomly assigned 167 undergraduate students to several experimental conditions for validation of interaction and independent effects in forgiveness tendencies. The results show the activation of prototypic traits with a higher degree of offense might be used against the transgressor and lowering the chance of being forgiven. The traits imply that forgiveness is a result of a cognitive processing consistent with the principal of automaticity than a social process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
