Abstract Synopsis
- The negativity bias refers to the tendency to pay more attention to negative information, and there is extensive research on how it is understood, measured, and varies between individuals.
- Study of the negativity bias includes examining its stability over time, as well as its neural and genetic roots, indicating it's influenced by biology.
- Hibbing and colleagues suggest that differences in negativity bias among people can help explain variations in political beliefs and attitudes, and current measures can test this idea.]
