Participants completed an emotion priming task, read vignettes describing another’s behavior positively or negatively, then rated their impressions. Reading subsequent vignettes depicting behavior contrary to participants’ initial impressions resulted in impression reversal. Moreover, participants’ primed emotions influenced their impression formation and revision process
