Statistical Significance and the Dichotomization of Evidence (2017, background): “Consequently, it should be unsurprising that this finding has failed to replicate (Ranehill et al. 2015; we note the first author of Carney, Cuddy, and Yap (2010) no longer believes in, studies (and discourages others from studying), teaches, or speaks to the media about these power pose effects…”
Abandon Statistical Significance (2017, background): “However, in recent years, a series of well-publicized examples (e.g., Carney et al. (2010) and Bem (2011)) coupled with theoretical work has made it clear that statistical signiﬁcance can easily be obtained from pure noise.”
A Bayesian model-averaged meta-analysis of the power pose effect with informed and default priors: the case of felt power (2017, background): “Abstract Carney, Cuddy, and Yap (2010) found that --compared to participants who adopted constrictive body postures-- participants who adopted expansive body postures reported feeling more powerful, showed an increase in testosterone and a decrease in cortisol, and displayed an increased tolerance…”
“Alexa, order me a pizza!”: The mediating role of psychological power in the consumer–voice assistant interaction (2021, background): “psychologists (Carney et al., 2010; Keltner et al., 2003), less research has considered how power shapes and guides consumption and consumer behavior (Kim & McGill, 2011; Rucker & Galinsky, 2009,”
Large-Scale Replication Projects in Contemporary Psychological Research (2017, background): “This problem appears particularly acute in psychology, where the failure to replicate several prominent findings (for example, Bargh, Chen, and Burrows (1996); Bargh et al. (2001); Carney, Cuddy, and Yap (2010); Bem (2011)) has attracted the attention of both academics and the popular press.”
Gender Stereotypes. (2018, background): “Such postures convey information to others but also affect the way people perceive and present themselves (Carney et al. 2010), as was illustrated by a study where participants were asked to take on specific body postures while preparing for a mock job interview.”
BODIES IN CONTEXT: POWER POSES AS A COMPUTATION OF ACTION POSSIBILITY (2013, background): “First and most obvious, when no faces were presented, the effects of holding different poses showed no similarity to the effects reported in prior research (e.g., Carney et al., 2010; Huang et al., 2011).”
Power and consumer behavior: How power shapes who and what consumers value (2012, background): “For example, work by Carney et al. (2010) on physical posturing (i.e. ‘posing’) has demonstrated that relative to their own pre–post baseline, individuals in a high-power pose exhibited an increase in testosterone (T), whereas individuals in a low-power pose exhibited a decrease in testosterone.”
