“…Moreover, judges' implicit theories about "what goes with what" (Shweder, 1975;Shweder & D'Andrade, 1980) are held so strongly that the factor structure of judgments remains stable regardless of whether a real person is available to judge (Passini & Norman, 1966). This fact is interpreted by some investigators as indicating that personality judgments are based more on these implicit theories than on observations of the persons judged (Shweder & D'Andrade, 1980; see rebuttals by Block, Weiss, & Thome, 1979;DeSoto, Hamilton, & Taylor, 1985;Romer&Revelle, 1984;Paunonen& Jackson, 1979).…”

“…They showed, in a parallel set of analyses, one contaminated and one uncontaminated by semantic distortion effects, that target persons are described in the same way in both analyses. Most observers regard the semantic distortion hypothesis as having been largely disproved (see also DeSoto, Hamilton, & Taylor, 1985).…”

“…The arguments against the traditional (trait) theory of personality put forward by Shweder and D'Andrade and several other researchers (e.g., Berman & Kenny, 1976; Berman, Read, & Kenny, 1983; Bourne, 1977; Chapman & Chapman, 1967, 1969; Mischel, 1968) have been countered by a number of authors for several reasons (Block, 1977; Block, Weiss, & Thorne, 1979; Borkenau, 1986b; Borkenau & Ostendorf, 1987; DeSoto, Hamilton, & Taylor, 1985; Epstein, 1979; Jackson, Chan, & Stricker, 1979; Lamiell, Foss, & Cavenee, 1980; Romer & Revelle, 1984; Weiss, 1979; Weiss & Mendelsohn, 1986). A central point in the discussion of the systematic distortion hypothesis is the question how should behaviors shown by a person be coded for scientific analysis?…”
