Andersen and Bem (1981) conducted a variation of the getting-acquainted telephone study by Snyder, Elizabeth Tanke, and Berscheid (1977).
Andersen and Bem provided attractive and unattractive photos of men to women who interacted with men at the other end of a telephone. What would you expect happened when the women thought that the men with whom they were speaking were the men in the photos?
a. The female participants did not fall prey to the self-fulfilling prophecy as did men in previous studies.
b. The results were similar to studies in which men were provided the photos.
c. The men on the other end did not change their behaviors in response to the women's differential treatment.
d. Because the men controlled the conversations, the self-fulfilling prophecy did not occur.
