Types of Asymmetrical Causal Types of Asymmetrical Causal RelationshipsRelationships
Relationship Type
Nature of Relationship
Examples
Stimulus-response An event or change results in a response from
some object.
• A change in work rules leads to a higher level of worker output.
• A change in government economic policy restricts corporate financial decisions.
• A price increase results in fewer unit sales.
Property-disposition
An existing property causes a disposition.
• Age and attitudes about saving.• Gender attitudes toward social issues.
• Social class and opinions about taxation.
Disposition-behavior
A disposition causes a specific behavior.
• Opinions about a brand and its purchase.• Job satisfaction and work output.• Moral values and tax cheating.
Property-behavior An existing property causes a specific
behavior.
• Stage of the family life cycle and purchases of furniture.
• Social class and family savings patterns.• Age and sports participation.
