  On Wanting What We Do Not Have
 
 
Title: On Wanting What We Do Not Have
Author: Folger, Robert
Appeared in: Basic and applied social psychology
Paging: Volume 13 (1992) nr. 1 pages 123-133
Year: 1992-03-01
Contents: In providing a commentary on the articles in this special issue, my contribution integrates them at a higher level of abstraction. Two integrating devices prove useful: a cue-based approach, in which an aspect of unavailability signals a corresponding implication for desirability; and an attention-based approach, in which unavailability enhances salience and fosters rumination. These approaches complement one another, in that the former focuses on the content of thought (associations), whereas the latter places greater emphasis on the processes of thought (salience and rumination).
