Metacognitive experiences of disflueny have been shown to increase estimations of spatial and conceptual distance (Alter & Oppenheimer, 2009; Oppenheimer & Frank, 2008). Based on Construal Level Theory’s perspective that distances are interchangeable and have bi-directional effects (Liberman, Trope, & Stephan, 2007), the current studies tested the novel hypothesis that disfluency may enhance social distance. To do so, target-related and–unrelated instantiations of visual (dis)fluency were employed by using social targets and fonts varying in fluency. In line with expectations, experiences of disfluency (vs. fluency) produced perceptions of greater self-other dissimilarity, both for explicit (Study 1) and rather implicit similarity judgments...
