The methods of two dimensional model seismology were used to investigate the phenomena occurring when a Rayleigh wave is incident upon a corner whose angle is comprised between 0° and 180°. The wave bends its path only for angles between 130° and 180°. For smaller angles large and abrupt variations in reflection and transmission occur; the wave travels to the extremity of the corner and never “cuts corners”; only about 50 percent of the energy of the indicent surface wave is preserved as such, the rest goes into body waves; for a 90° corner the proportion is about 23 percent in P and 26 percent in S, with sharply preferential angles of incidence. The percentages given were found for a “plate Poisson’s ratio” of 0.17.

This research uses the counter-attitudinal essay paradigm ( Janis & King, 1954 ) to test the effects of social actions on social representations. Thus, students wrote either a pro- or a counter-attitudinal essay on Higher Education. Three forms of counter-attitudinal essays were manipulated countering respectively a) students’ attitudes towards higher education; b) peripheral beliefs or c) central beliefs associated with this representation object. After writing the essay, students expressed their attitudes towards higher education and evaluated different beliefs associated with it. The structural status of these beliefs was also assessed by a “calling into question” test ( Flament, 1994a ). Results show that behavior challenging either an attitude or peripheral beliefs induces a rationalization process, giving rise to minor modifications of the representational field. These modifications are only on the social evaluative dimension of the social representation. On the other hand, when the behavior challenges central beliefs, the same rationalization process induces a cognitive restructuring of the representational field, i.e., a structural change in the representation. These results and their implications for the experimental study of representational dynamics are discussed with regard to the two-dimensional model of social representations ( Moliner, 1994 ) and rationalization theory ( Beauvois & Joule, 1996 ).
