Summary

Sharon heard her favorite author criticize a political candidate that she had supported for years. As a result, Sharon’s opinion of the author declined, while her opinion of the candidate remained the same.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

Someone who hears an opinion that counters a long-held belief will doubt the source rather than question their held belief.

There is no support for whether an artist’s most dedicated fans will be influenced. The stimulus just says that Sharon was not influenced.

There is no justification given for when an artist should give a political statement.

There is no support for when an artist should or should not give a political statement.

Sharon’s longstanding support for a political candidate outweighs the opinion of her favorite author. As a result, Sharon’s opinion of the author declines (doubts the testimony of the source) instead of challenging her own beliefs.

There is no information about how long Sharon supported her favorite author, so this comparative statement cannot be made.
