| Abstract | To examine whether a person's actions are more important in determining impressions of personality than are self-descriptions, subjects in two separate studies viewed two videotapes, one depicting a stimulus person's self-description and the other depicting that person's behavior in a conversation. Subjects rated the stimulus person on several personality dimensions related to introversion-extraversion and made attributions about the cause of the conversation behavior. A four-way factorial design--personality descriptor used in self-description (introvert or extravert) X type of behavior in conversation X order of presentation of videotapes X stimulus person--found that behavioral evidence had more of an impact on personality ratings than did self-description. Subjects attributed the stimulus person's behavior to personality when the self-descriptor agreed with the behavior, but attributed more causality to situational factors in inconsistent conditions. No order of presentation effects were found. (Author/NRB) |
