PSYC35H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Extraversion And Introversion, Egon Brunswik, Interpersonal Perception
Document Summary
Judgements of others of you normally correlates (congruence & consensus) There"s a reality to what they see. Zero acquaintance: rate a stranger after a few moments of interaction. Absolute zero acquaintance: asked to rate a personality of a stranger with just a picture of them (surprisingly accurate) Interpersonal perception (hard to study because it"s bidirectional where observers are also getting assessed & you can"t see personality traits. Cues from the environments = valid indicators of a trait. Degree to which a cue is valid & how it correlates to a trait. To what extent was each cue used? (the effect of the presense or the absence of the cue) Use cues in accordance with the traits (only use valid cues) Accurate personality judgment = relevance (if they aren"t relevant, then there is no judgement) * availability (accuracy) * detection * utilization.
