Abstract | A study investigated the vocal intensity of interviewers and the gender of interviewees to test a speech accommodation theory of behavioral reactions to speech style, while simultaneously determining whether previous research is corroborated in the context of the employment interview. Multiple discriminant analysis of 34 interviews (13 males and 21 females in an undergraduate interviewing class) revealed some support for a number of sex-role expectations regarding differences in vocal pauses, body adapters, body lean, seating distance, response latencies, gestures, turn-yielding head nods, and vocal intensity. No support was found for the hypothesis based on speech accommodation theory. (Contains 26 references.) (Author/RS) |
