Fehr (2012) describes a process model of the emergence and decay of friendship. An initiation phase is followed by phases of formation, maintenance, and, if necessary, decline and dissolution. Of importance for this proposal is that in all phases mutual liking (liking) plays a prominent role. Fehr also mentions important potential mechanisms that lead to the emergence of liking and to the maintenance or decline of liking. Fehr explicitly emphasizes aspects of personality. It is also important that the mechanisms addressed are understood as communicative processes and not as one-sided information processing. Finally, Fehr states that friendship, from the perspective of research, is the neglected relationship. This proposal addresses this desideratum from two perspectives: a social and a personality psychological perspective. The aim is to combine two successful research strands to gain more insight into the mechanisms that evoke and sustain liking. The model of mimicry in social relationships by Hess and Fischer (2013, 2014) describes how emotional mimicry, which reflects emotional facial expressions, regulates social relationships. It is assumed that a negative attitude towards a person leads to emotional mimicry being limited or even stopped. However, congruence in emotional expressions leads to social warmth and thus to liking. Emotional mimicry is therefore a function of the interaction goals. Thus, the situational context gets a special role, because it influences interaction goals. In personality psychology, the work of Paulhus (1998) and Back and colleagues shows that people with higher scores on subclinical narcissism scales are initially more popular when strangers meet. However, this initial popularity changes over time and eventually reverses. The work of Back and colleagues shows that emotional facial expressions are important. However, research to date has mostly focused on the phenomenon from the perspective of individuals. Moreover, the facetted nature of narcissism (agentic exraversion, self-centered antagonism, and narcissistic neuroticism) has not yet been sufficiently appreciated. The proposed study now combines research on mimicry and narcissism in relation to the emergence of friendships. Here lies an interesting connection to the model of Hess and Fischer, which will be focused in this project. The research questions aim at the role of emotional mimicry in the development of liking in general and the course of liking for persons with elevated narcissistic values in particular. The data obtained will be evaluated using continuous time modeling approaches.

Fehr(2012)描述了友谊产生和衰败的过程模型。初始阶段之后是形成、维持阶段，如有必要，还包括衰落和溶解阶段。这一提议的重要之处在于，在所有阶段，相互喜欢(Liking)都扮演着突出的角色。Fehr还提到了导致喜欢的出现以及喜欢的维持或下降的重要潜在机制。费尔明确强调个性的各个方面。同样重要的是，应将所述机制理解为交流过程，而不是片面的信息处理。最后，费尔指出，从研究的角度来看，友谊是被忽视的关系。这项建议从两个角度解决了这一愿望：社会和人格心理角度。其目的是将两个成功的研究线索结合起来，以更深入地了解唤起和维持喜欢的机制。Hess和Fischer(2013,2014)提出的社会关系中的模仿模型描述了反映情绪面部表情的情感模仿是如何调节社会关系的。人们认为，对一个人的消极态度会导致情感模仿受到限制，甚至停止。然而，情感表达的一致性会导致社交温暖，从而产生喜爱。因此，情绪模仿是互动目标的一个函数。因此，情景语境具有特殊的作用，因为它影响互动目标。在人格心理学方面，Paulhus(1998)和Back及其同事的工作表明，在亚临床自恋量表上得分较高的人最初在陌生人见面时更受欢迎。然而，这种最初的受欢迎程度会随着时间的推移而变化，最终会逆转。Back和他的同事们的研究表明，情绪面部表情很重要。然而，到目前为止，研究大多集中在从个人的角度对这一现象进行研究。此外，自恋的多面性(代理外向、以自我为中心的对抗性和自恋神经质)还没有得到充分的认识。这项拟议的研究现在结合了关于模仿和自恋与友谊的出现有关的研究。这是与Hess和Fischer的模型的一个有趣的联系，这将是本项目的重点。这些研究问题旨在研究情绪模仿在总体喜好发展中的作用，特别是对具有更高自恋价值观的人的喜好过程。将使用连续时间建模方法对获得的数据进行评估。
