Abstract

We test whether ideologies affect control processes devoted to action regulation. In two experiments, priming national-ideologies impaired performance on cognitive control tasks. These results provide preliminary evidence towards understanding the cognitive mechanics of ideologies and how they unintentionally incline us to process information in a more schematic, less controlled manner.
