jan 1, 1967 - Darley and Berscheild study on friendship and anticipation

Description:

Darley and Berscheild found that when Ss (girls, in the case of their study) was to anticipate the meeting and interaction of someone, they were more likely to expect to like them.
In this study, girls were told they were assigned a partner that they would complete an assignment with, and then they were given the personality descriptions of both their expected partner and a second girl. They anticipated that they would like their future partner over the other girl. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1967-10373-001
