Abstract:
This study measured automatic walking synchronization and how it associates with social impression. Previous studies discovered positive social consequence of motor synchrony with ecological paradigms (e.g. body movement synchrony between therapists and patients in clinical sessions, and the synchrony of side-by-side walkers). However, most studies of joint movement with high ecological validity face the same challenge, namely that conversations between participants might be the main or a partial contributor to the observed social benefits, as conversation is well documented to promote understanding and motor synchronization. We addressed this issue by using a novel paradigm to remove the conversation component and examined how synchrony per se interacted with social impression. Participants were paired to walk side by side in silence (i.e. without conversation) and their social impression toward each other was rated before/after the paired walk. Our results showed that walkers' first impression was positively associated with their step synchronization rate in the silent paired walk. Together with past findings, the bi-directional relation between body entrainment and social functions suggests that implicit nonverbal communication plays a significant role in providing a basis for interpersonal interaction.Keywords:

本研究では研究Iで, 仮想場面における対人不安の高・低による着席行動の違いと相互作用の相手に対する印象形成について検討するために調査による検討を行った. ついで面接時における対人不安の高い者に対する印象の変容を検討した. 調査の結果, 対人不安の高い者は相手の正面を避けて斜め前を選択すること, 対人不安の低い者は相手の正面を選択することがわかった. また対人不安の高い者は, 相互作用する相手との距離が近いほど緊張した印象に身体方向の影響が現われることがわかった. それに対して対人不安の低い者は, 緊張した印象に身体方向の影響は現われなかった. 研究IIでは, 実際に対人不安の高い者と低い者が相互作用した結果, 90度の座席で行うと相互作用の初期には対人不安の高い者は緊張した印象であると評定された. しかしこの座席で相互作用を繰り返した結果, リラックスした印象に変化したのに対して, 斜め前の座席で相互作用を行っても印象の変化はみられなかった. これらの結果について, 臨床場面での応用の可能性ついて考察された.

This report describes the interim result of the study about applying the method and process of 'systems thinking' to social problems including impressions ('impression problem'). 'Systems thinking' is one of the methods of problems solving for social systems, and by using this method we surely can understand and explain the behaviors of social systems by the knowledge acquired through analyzing their structures. The author is trying to examine which parts of this method are effective and which are insufficient, through actual experiencees and thinking experiment of solving impression problems. And the author is also trying to find out the know-how for solving the actual impression problems successfully by applying this method, and to arrange them as application guidance in the form of the checklist for solving impression problems.
