Overall, half the participants accepted the false feedback responses as their own. The participants’ future attitudes were strongly influenced by the false feedback, even after one week. Attitude change was more significant amongst participants in the confabulation condition, asked to provide verbal arguments, versus the acknowledge condition. Political involvement and beliefs had no effect on one’s ability for attitude change or response correction. Participants with higher CRT scores were more likely to recognize the manipulation and correct it. There was no significance between magnitude of attitude change and length of confabulatory response.
