Interpersonal proximity was examined as a cue in impression formation by varying factorially four interpersonal distances (2', 3 1/4', 5 1/2', 9 1/2'), sex of S (48 male and 48 female American college students), and sex of C (three male and three female students). Interpersonal proximity in the interview situation did not directly affect Ss' impressions of the Cs as measured by the Gough and Heilbrun Adjective Check List and Schutz's FIRO-B test. Although the four distances operationalized two of the interpersonal distance zones in Hall's normative model of human spatial behavior, Ss did not report the expected differences in the experiences of these two zones. The implications of the present findings for the limited role of interpersonal proximity as a cue in impression formation and for Hall's model are discussed.
通过对四个人际距离（2英尺、3又1/4英尺、5又1/2英尺、9又1/2英尺）、被试性别（48名美国男大学生和48名美国女大学生）以及主试性别（3名男学生和3名女学生）进行析因变化，人际接近度被作为印象形成中的一个线索进行研究。在访谈情境中，人际接近度并未直接影响被试用高夫和海尔布伦形容词检核表以及舒茨的FIRO - B测验所测量的对主试的印象。尽管这四个距离在霍尔人类空间行为规范模型中界定了两个人际距离区域，但被试并未报告这两个区域体验上的预期差异。本文讨论了这些研究结果对于人际接近度在印象形成中作为线索的有限作用以及对霍尔模型的意义。
