The contrast effect occurs when a judgment or evaluation of something is shifted away from a reference point due to the presence of other, contrasting stimuli. This is different from assimilation and accommodation effects, which involve the tendency to incorporate new information into existing beliefs or create new beliefs to fit new information, respectively.
