Abstract

ABSTRACT We describe research on the creation of shared reality in communication, emphasizing the epistemic processes that allow communicators to achieve confident judgements and evaluations about a communication topic. We distinguish three epistemic inputs: (1) the communicator’s own judgement about the topic (judgement of communicator); (2) the communicator’s perception of the audience’s judgement about the topic (judgement of audience); and (3) the communicator’s message to the audience about the topic (message of communicator). We argue that the influence of each input increases with the communicator’s confidence in the validity of that input. We review a variety of empirical studies in terms of this framework. We also address barriers to shared-reality creation in intergroup communication and describe interventions that work by increasing the validity strength of judgement of an outgroup audience. We discuss the relation between the present research and other approaches to social influence and social sharing.

在人际和群体间交流中创造共同的现实：认识过程的作用及其相互作用

摘要：我们描述了关于在沟通中创造共享现实的研究，强调了认知过程，使沟通者能够对沟通主题做出自信的判断和评价。我们区分了三种认识输入：（1）交际者自己对话题的判断（交际者的判断）；（2）传播者对观众对主题的判断的感知（观众的判断）；以及（3）传播者向观众发送的关于主题的消息（传播者的消息）。我们认为，每个输入的影响随着沟通者对该输入有效性的信心而增加。我们在这个框架下回顾了各种实证研究。我们还解决了群体间交流中共享现实创造的障碍，并描述了通过提高群体外受众判断的有效性来发挥作用的干预措施。我们讨论了本研究与其他社会影响和社会共享方法之间的关系。

期刊介绍： The "European Review of Social Psychology (ERSP)" is a distinguished international journal that operates under the patronage of the European Association of Social Psychology. It serves as a platform for comprehensive, theory-driven reviews that cover the broad spectrum of social psychology. The journal is open to submissions from authors worldwide and is guided by a prestigious international editorial board. ERSP is particularly interested in publishing reviews that reflect the author's own research program, as demonstrated by their publications in leading peer-reviewed journals. The journal values theoretical contributions that are grounded in a substantial empirical foundation, situating the research within the broader context of existing literature and offering a synthesis that goes beyond the individual articles. In addition to these in-depth reviews, ERSP also welcomes conventional reviews and meta-analyses, further enriching the journal's offerings. By focusing on high-quality, evidence-based research, ERSP contributes significantly to the advancement of knowledge in social psychology and fosters a deeper understanding of human social behavior across cultures and societies.
