Correlational bias: Not gone and not to be forgotten
Abstract
Responds to J. Block's criticisms (see record 1979-27725-001) of the present authors' article on correlational bias (see record 1976-26979-001). The following arguments are presented: (a) Block's criticisms of ecological validity are not persuasive; (b) a computational error in the original study does not affect the conclusions; and (c) Block's optimism concerning the corrective action of mean ratings is unwarranted.
