非文字语言代表了一种复杂的交流形式，可以用许多不同的方式来解释。我们的研究探讨了个性和沟通风格的个体差异如何影响评价的文字和非文字语言的背景下所作的假设的色彩假说（Dews &赢家，1995年）。参与者观看了社交互动的视频，重点是积极的，消极的，讽刺的和幽默的陈述。他们评估了演讲者的意图和社会印象，并完成了几份个性和沟通风格的问卷。移情，防御方式和讽刺的使用与识别扬声器的意图的准确性的个体差异。此外，积极的声明被评为友好相比，幽默的声明，从而支持色彩假说。然而，字面上的负面陈述被认为比讽刺性陈述更友好，这与色彩假设不一致。目前的研究结果提供了新的证据色调假说使用多模态，动态刺激和突出的作用，评价讽刺和滑稽的收件人的个人性格。
Nonliteral language represents a complex form of communication that can be interpreted in numerous different ways. Our study explored how individual differences in personality and communication styles affect the evaluation of literal and nonliteral language in the context of assumptions made by the Tinge Hypothesis (Dews & Winner, 1995). Participants watched videos of social interactions focusing on positive, negative, sarcastic, and jocular statements. They evaluated speaker intentions and social impressions and completed several personality and communication style questionnaires. Individual differences in empathy, defense style, and sarcasm use correlated with the accuracy of identifying speaker intent. Additionally, positive statements were rated as friendlier when compared to jocular statements, thereby supporting the Tinge Hypothesis. However, literal negative statements were rated as more friendly than sarcastic statements, which is inconsistent with the Tinge Hypothesis. The current results provide novel evidence for the Tinge Hypothesis using multimodal, dynamic stimuli and highlight the role of the individual personality of the recipient in evaluating sarcasm and jocularity.
