Corrigendum to "Spatial Distance and Mental Construal of Social Events".

Abstract

In the above article, the authors presented the results of two experiments that demonstrate that people mentally represent the same event more abstractly when it occurs at a physically distant vs. near location. There was a minor discrepancy in the materials that were actually used compared to the way the materials were described in the first of the two experiments. The discrepancy does not impact the merits of the findings nor of the conclusions.
