| Abstract | A study investigated the importance of brief contemplation as a factor in the accuracy of judgments about other people, based on their nonverbal appearance. The following questions were addressed: (1) Are observers who are given time to contemplate the significance of nonverbal cues more accurate in their perceptual judgments than observers who make immediate decisions? (2) Do males and females differ significantly in the accuracy of their perceptual judgments? and (3) Do the effects of exposure time seem to operate similarly for observers of both sexes? Two-hundred fifty-five undergraduate students were told that they were viewing the slides of persons engaged in nonverbal behaviors as part of a research project designed to learn more about how accurately people can judge nonverbal information. Results indicated that observers given time to briefly contemplate the significance of nonverbal cues were no more accurate in their perceptual judgments than observers who made immediate decisions. Male and female observers did not differ significantly in the accuracy of their perceptual judgments. No significant difference was found concerning interactions between sex and the effects of exposure time. (EL) |
