ABSTRACT

Agnew, Neil McK. Pyke, Sandra W. Research is like a love affair. The ingredients include: (1) your image of the girl; (2) the real girl as she would appear if you. . . had access to all information about her; and (3) the bits, pieces, or samples of information you have, some of it clear, some of it vague, some of it twisted by memory or biased senses. . .Changing a once-loved picture is a very painful process, and we know the degrees to which a lover will go to ignore, twist, and blink away negative data. . .
