Resumo
O artigo analisa os efeitos dos juízos cognitivos e das reações emocionais ao estado da economia brasileira e das finanças pessoais de entrevistados em dois surveys sobre a aprovação do governo federal. Com base na teoria da inteligência afetiva, o artigo mensura e compara a influência dessas duas perspectivas sobre a opinião pública brasileira em dois contextos distintos. Em novembro de 2014, a presidente Dilma Rousseff havia sido recém-reeleita e a percepção predominante sobre o estado da economia era satisfatória. Já em abril de 2015, o governo havia anunciado duras medidas de ajuste fiscal e aumento de preços públicos, alterando de modo relevante a opinião da sociedade brasileira sobre o contexto econômico. Nossos resultados confirmam a expectativa de que razão e emoção atuam de modo complementar na formação da opinião sobre o governo federal e que, em tempos de crise, a influência relativa das emoções é maior.
