长期以来,人们一直心照不宣地认为,感知者自发地将社会信息,如特征和行为,组织成个性化的个人格式塔。在Ostrom和Pryor的研究中,这一假设的有效性受到了质疑。这项研究考察了知觉者如何在多人、多属性的知觉领域(例如,政党、小组讨论或刑事审判环境)组织信息。他们的数据表明,在这种情况下,关于陌生人的社交信息并不是围绕着人来组织的。本文对44项已发表和未发表的个人组织研究进行了荟萃分析。Meta分析提供的统计能力的增加导致了Ostrom和Pryor早先的结论被拒绝。研究发现,感知者有一个显著的(虽然不是很大的)倾向于围绕人的类别组织社会信息,从而支持了早期印象形成理论家的假设。
It has long been tacitly assumed that perceivers spontaneously organize social information, such as traits and behaviors, into individualized person gestalts. The validity of this assumption was questioned in research by Ostrom and Pryor that examined how perceivers organize information in multiperson, multiattribute perceptual fields (e.g., a party, a group discussion, or a criminal trial setting). Their data indicated that in such situations social information about unfamiliar others is not organized around persons. This paper reports a meta-analysis of 44 published and unpublished person organization studies. This increase in statistical power afforded by meta-analysis led to a rejection of Ostrom and Pryor's earlier conclusions. Perceivers were found to have a significant (although not large) tendency toward organizing social information around person categories, thus supporting the assumption of the early impression formation theorists.
