    El papel que desempeñan los procesos implícitos en los juicios evaluativos es objeto central de la investigación en psicología cognitiva. La presente revisión tiene como objetivo profundizar en las implicaciones del concepto de automaticidad evaluativa para la cognición social, con especial énfasis en los errores en la atribución afectiva, y las teorías de la cognición corporizada. Con este fin, se recapitulan los ha-llazgos más relevantes en estos fenómenos y se proponen posibles líneas de aplicación fuera del laboratorio. Se concluye que los errores en la atribución afectiva se encuentran operativos en diversos aspectos de la cognición social, por lo que entender su funcionamiento puede ser de mucha utilidad para ciertos ámbitos sociales aplicados.

    The automatic nature of evaluative judgments and, in particular, the role of implicit processes in this type of response is a central theme in cognitive psychology. The purpose of the present review is to explore the implications of the automaticity concept in social cognition, with a special emphasis on two well-documented phenomena: affective misattribution and embodiment. With this aim, we review the most relevant findings in this area, and we propose potential lines of application outside the laboratory. We conclude that affective misattribution is opera-tive in several domains of social cognition, which suggests that our daily life can benefit substantially from a better understanding of how our implicit mind works.
