Social mentalizing plays a crucial role in two-person interactions. Depending on the target of inference and the content being inferred, social mentalizing primarily exists in two forms: first-order mentalizing and second-order mentalizing. Our research aims to investigate the cue sources and cue utilization patterns of social mentalizing during two-person interactions. Our study created an experimental situation of a two-person interaction and used the "Spot the difference" game to reveal our research question with multi-stage tasks. Our study was divided into two experiments, Experiment 1 and Experiment 2, which examined the cue sources and cue utilization patterns of first- and second-order mentalizing, respectively. The results of the experiments showed that (1) self-performance and other performance are significant cues utilized by individuals during social mentalizing. (2) Individuals employ discrepancies to modulate the relationship between self-performance and first-order mentalizing as well as to adjust the relationship between otherperformance and second-order mentalizing. The results of this study further complement the dual-processing model of mindreading and the anchoring and adjustment hypothesis during social inference.
社会心理化在两人互动中起着至关重要的作用。根据推理目标和所推理的内容，社会心理化主要以两种形式存在：一阶心理化和二阶心理化。我们的研究旨在探究两人互动过程中社会心理化的线索来源和线索利用模式。我们的研究创设了一个两人互动的实验情境，并使用“找不同”游戏，通过多阶段任务来揭示我们的研究问题。我们的研究分为两个实验，实验1和实验2，分别考察了一阶和二阶心理化的线索来源和线索利用模式。实验结果表明：（1）自我表现和他人表现是个体在社会心理化过程中利用的重要线索。（2）个体利用差异来调节自我表现与一阶心理化之间的关系，以及调节他人表现与二阶心理化之间的关系。本研究结果进一步补充了社会推理过程中的读心双加工模型以及锚定与调整假设。
