Zawartość artykułu

Abstrakt

Efekt pierwszeństwa w decyzjach wyborczych (ang. the primacy effect) jest od dawna uważany za kluczowy czynnik determinujący wyniki głosowań. Mechanizm jego działania w rozmaitych kontekstach został szczegółowo przedstawiony w licznych pracach, dotychczas jednak nie skupiono się w wystarczającym stopniu na roli efektu pierwszeństwa podczas głosowania metodą korespondencyjną. W moim artykule dokonuję przeglądu czynników determinujących występowanie efektu pierwszeństwa oraz opisuję jego znaczenie dla wyników wyborów. Następnie, analizując wyniki dwóch prac nad efektem pierwszeństwa oraz wyborami korespondencyjnymi, rozważam, dlaczego taka forma głosowania może zwiększyć siłę działania efektu pierwszeństwa. Omawiane przeze mnie rezultaty identyfi kują pewne problemy związane z badaniem
zależności między efektem pierwszeństwa a wynikami głosowań drogą korespondencyjną, jednocześnie wskazują na kierunki dalszych obiecujących badań nad fenomenem efektu pierwszeństwa.
