个体主体是其社会互动的组成部分还是由其社会互动构成？这个问题在认知科学中通常不会被问到，因为人们一致认为，只有个体个体才具有本构功效。在本文中，我们挑战这种方法论唯我论，并认为个体间的关系和社会背景不仅仅源于个体主体的行为，而且本身也促成并塑造了它们所依赖的个体主体。为此，我们将自主的概念定义为个体主体和社会互动过程的特征。然后，我们提出了互动自主可以影响个体的多种方式。然后，我们一方面讨论最近在建模方面的工作，另一方面讨论支持和说明这一主张的心理调查。最后，我们讨论了对社会和个人能动性研究的一些启示。
Is an individual agent constitutive of or constituted by its social interactions? This question is typically not asked in the cognitive sciences, so strong is the consensus that only individual agents have constitutive efficacy. In this article we challenge this methodological solipsism and argue that interindividual relations and social context do not simply arise from the behavior of individual agents, but themselves enable and shape the individual agents on which they depend. For this, we define the notion of autonomy as both a characteristic of individual agents and of social interaction processes. We then propose a number of ways in which interactional autonomy can influence individuals. Then we discuss recent work in modeling on the one hand and psychological investigations on the other that support and illustrate this claim. Finally, we discuss some implications for research on social and individual agency.
