The impact of previous interpersonal contact or exposure to male homosexuals and lesbians on interviewing strategy was assessed. Previous research on attitudes toward homosexuals suggests that prior exposure reduces the negativity of attitudes toward homosexuals. In support of that research and research looking at the use of confirmatory questioning strategies in social interactions, it was expected that individuals with prior exposure to homosexuals and/or positive attitudes toward homosexuals would choose fewer negative information-seeking questions for a proposed interview. The results support previous research findings regarding attitudes towards gay men and lesbians and suggest that pre-interview attitudes and prior exposure may influence interviewer strategy.
评估了先前的人际接触或接触男同性恋者和女同性恋者对访谈策略的影响。先前关于对同性恋者态度的研究表明，先前的接触会降低对同性恋者态度的负面程度。为支持该研究以及关于在社会互动中使用证实性提问策略的研究，预计先前接触过同性恋者和/或对同性恋者持积极态度的个体在拟议的访谈中会选择较少的负面信息寻求问题。结果支持了先前关于对男同性恋者和女同性恋者态度的研究发现，并表明访谈前的态度和先前的接触可能会影响访谈者的策略。
