本研究考察了语速水平、说话人性别和互动语境对听者对说话人的评价反应的影响。受试者(N=214)以五种语速水平之一听男声或女声的评论。此外，受试者被诱导认为这些段落是非正式对话或求职面试的摘录。在听到刺激的声音后，受试者对演讲者的能力和社会吸引力进行了评估。与以前的研究一致，语速与男性和女性说话者的能力判断都呈正相关。然而，就社会吸引力而言，语速水平×说话者的性别互动表明，语速对男性说话者的判断有显著影响(倾向于中等到相对较快的语速)，但与女性说话者的判断无关。在胜任力测量上也观察到了情境主效应。文中还讨论了理论意义。
This study investigated the effects of speech rate level, speaker sex, and interaction context on listeners’ evaluative responses to speakers. Subjects (N = 214) listened to remarks by a male or female voice at one of five speech rate levels. Also, subjects were induced to believe the passages were excerpts from either an informal conversation or employment interview. After hearing the stimulus voice, the subjects evaluated the speakers on competence and social attractiveness measures. Consistent with previous research, speech rate was positively related to competence judgments for both male and female speakers. However, for social attractiveness, a speech rate level × speaker sex interaction indicated that speech rate had a significant impact on judgments of the male speaker (a preference for moderate to relatively faster rates) but was unrelated to judgments of the female speaker. A context main effect was also observed on the competence measure. Theoretical implications are discussed.
