Abstract
We tested how expression-based regulation strategies influence personality judgments in an experiment with 164 undergraduate stranger dyads. One partner suppressed or amplified their emotional expressions during a conversation. Afterwards, partners rated their own and their partner’s personality. Suppressors were seen as less extraverted and warm than controls and amplifiers, while amplifiers were seen as more neurotic. Suppressors were not judged less accurately than others. However, amplifiers’ warmth and extraversion were judged more accurately than controls and suppressors. Suppression and amplification largely did not impact judgments of others, except suppressors more accurately judged others’ warmth than controls. Thus, suppression and amplification distinctly impacted personality judgments made about the regulators by others but had little impact on regulators’ judgments.
期刊介绍：
Emphasizing experimental and descriptive research, the Journal of Research in Personality presents articles that examine important issues in the field of personality and in related fields basic to the understanding of personality. The subject matter includes treatments of genetic, physiological, motivational, learning, perceptual, cognitive, and social processes of both normal and abnormal kinds in human and animal subjects. Features: • Papers that present integrated sets of studies that address significant theoretical issues relating to personality. • Theoretical papers and critical reviews of current experimental and methodological interest. • Single, well-designed studies of an innovative nature. • Brief reports, including replication or null result studies of previously reported findings, or a well-designed studies addressing questions of limited scope.
