Abstract

The results showed that seat orientation (i.e., seat facing the door or seat with the backs to the door) had a solid effect on the perception of power. The position facing the door was judged more powerful (Experiment 1 and 2); this phenomenon only appeared in Chinese participants (Experiment 3).
