[\u2026] As pointed out in a new study by University of Cologne\u2019s Iris Schneider and colleagues (2021), \u201cAmbivalence is at the heart of many topics that people care deeply about.\u201d [\u2026] Although ambivalence usually has negative connotations, Schneider and her fellow researchers propose that there can be some concrete benefits. [\u2026] [A]s the authors predicted, people higher in ambivalence were less likely to fall prey to [\u2026] attributional bias. [\u2026] Reflecting on their findings, the authors suggest that the reason ambivalent people are less prey to bias is that \u201cambivalence leads to broader processing and incorporation of diverse perspectives.\u201d&#8221;","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Psychology Today, 01.06.2021 | Susan Krauss Whitbourne\u201eBeing chronically ambivalent may seem to be a maladaptive if not irritating quality.
