Individuals generally perceive their own characteristics, opinions, and preferences as relatively commonplace and typical (Ross, Greene & House, 1977). The stability of this phenomenon is such that it has been widely described and produces, at judgement level, the False Consensus effect (FC; for a review see Marks & Miller, 1987, Verlhiac, in press). One example of FC is that individuals opposed to the legalisation of hashish estimate that a large percentage of people agree with them while those favourable towards the legalisation of the drug suppose that only a small percentage of people hold that opinion. The explanations for FC and its underlying cognitive and/or motivational processes are numerous and sometimes contradictory. This makes it difficult for FC specialists to isolate all the mediators of judgement. Despite their diversity, however, FC studies do coincide with work on social cognition; they link both cognitive and motiva-tional mechanisms to selective processing and to more or less objective treatments of social information provided to subjects or inferred by subjects themselves. In line with this perspective, FC studies reveal that people perform Non diagnostic information and the effects of context evaluation in the moderation of False Consensus
