Resumo(s)
Theories of social perception argue that there are two underlying dimensions of social judgment, variously
labeled competence/agency and warmth/communality. How these relate to each other has been the focus of
extensive empirical work with research showing both a ‘halo” relation (targets rated more positively on one
dimension are rated more positively on the other) and a “compensatory” relation (targets rated more positively
on one dimension are rated more negatively on the other). We argue that these divergent findings result from
different comparative contexts under which participants judge social stimuli and on the underlying factors that
contribute to variance in the resulting judgments. In two studies, we vary the comparative context under which
perceivers made judgments and we decompose the variance in such judgments (and their covariance) into
components due to the random factors of participants, targets, and their interaction. Halo relations emerge for
participant means, regardless of comparative context. On the other hand, the covariance between target means
changes signs under different comparative contexts, as does the interaction covariance.
