Abstract

: This study investigated the role of secondhand information for impression formation in spoken communication, using a voice transfer system. In Experiment 1, listeners were presented with spoken sentences that represented someone’s behavior in either a positive or negative prosody, which is a clue for forming impressions. Listeners rated each social impression of a person who took on a specific behavior. The results showed that the formed impressions were weaker when the affective characteristics of voices were inconsistent with those of behavioral descriptions. Experiment 2 tested the effects of sentence meanings on forming impressions of speakers’ voices using the same sound files. Results revealed that social impressions of speakers’ voices were also modulated by sentence meaning, even though the sentence was not related to the speaker. This study underscores the role of secondhand information in social impression and advances the understanding of the interaction between prosody and meanings in spoken communication.
口语交际中第二手信息对印象形成的影响
本研究利用语音传递系统,探讨了二手信息在口语交际中对印象形成的作用。在实验1中,研究人员向听者展示了以积极或消极韵律表现某人行为的口语句子,这是形成印象的线索。听众对采取特定行为的人的每个社会印象打分。结果表明,当声音的情感特征与行为描述不一致时,形成的印象较弱。实验2用相同的声音文件测试句子意义对说话人声音形成印象的影响。结果显示,说话者声音的社会印象也会受到句子含义的影响,即使这句话与说话者无关。本研究强调了二手信息在社会印象中的作用,促进了对口语交际中韵律和意义相互作用的理解。
