moderation 和 interaction 在这里都应该翻译成“互动”。 moderated groups 指的是“被 moderated 的小组”，也就是“被 moderator 管理的小组”，因此可以翻译成“有主持人的小组”。因此，译文应该是：有主持人的小组中的身体距离和性别：小群体互动中被忽视的因素。

Abstract

An experiment examined the effects of sex of subjects, sex of moderator, and seating distance between members of a small group on moods, evaluations, attraction, and attitude expression. Groups of three subjects and a moderator discussed a socially relevant issue and then made several ratings. During the discussion, group members sat either very close to each other or "very far apart, q?he expectation that males would react unfavorably while females would react favorably to close seating was not obtained. Instead, sex of moderator interacted strongly with distance. Regardless of sex, groups were more positive close to a female moderator and far from a male moderator. Attitudes showed the same interaction. Interpretations were that (1) the ranking person helps define the spacing norms for a group, and (2) there are sex differences in "personal space."

摘要

一项实验考察了被试的性别、调节者的性别以及小组成员之间的座位距离对情绪、评价、吸引力和态度表达的影响。三组被试和一名调节者讨论了一个与社会相关的问题，然后进行了多次评分。在讨论过程中，小组成员要么坐得非常近，要么“非常远”，我们期望男性对近距离座位反应不佳，而女性则会反应良好，但这种期望并未得到证实。相反，调节者的性别与距离强烈相互作用。无论性别如何，靠近女性调节者的小组更积极，而远离男性调节者的小组则更消极。态度也表现出同样的相互作用。解释是：（1）排名靠前的人有助于定义小组的空间规范；（2）“个人空间”存在性别差异。
