The present study aims to provide a contribution to the understanding of the mechanismsat the roots of electoral choice. We examined the impact on voting behaviour ofparticipants' attitudes toward voting for a given coalition and the personality traits theyattributed to the respective leaders. Findings from 120 voters underlined the mediationalrole of attitudes: perceived integrity and leadership traits positively affect the attitudetowards voting for the respective coalition, which in turn predict the electoral choice. Asignificant interaction between leadership and integrity also emerged: the beta weight ofthe trait with the higher predictive validity (leadership for centre-left candidate and integrityfor centre-right candidate) is higher when the other trait is highly attributed to thepolitician. Practical implications about the most efficient ways of conveying favourableimages of candidates were advanced.
