Twelve male and female college students served as Es and individually administered the following tests to a total of 72 male and female college students: Mehrabian and Russell's scale of Arousal-Seeking Tendency (AST), the Nowicki-Strickland scale of locus of control (ANSIE), a crowding perception test (CPT), and a figure placement task measuring perceived comfortable interpersonal distance (CID). Contrary to prediction, zero correlations were obtained between AST and CPT scores and between ANSIE scores and CID distances involving strangers. Low but significant correlations between CPT and CID scores were obtained. Analysis of variance of CID scores revealed a significant interaction between sex of S and locus of control that was not easy to interpret, and significant effects of degree of acquaintance, status, and sex of an approaching peer. A significant sex of E effect indicated that distances were larger with a female than with a male E. AST scores were larger for female than for male Ss, and larger with a male E than a female one.
12名男女大学生作为实验者，分别对总共72名男女大学生进行了以下测试：梅拉比安和拉塞尔的寻求刺激倾向量表（AST）、诺维茨基-斯特里克兰控制点量表（ANSIE）、拥挤感知测试（CPT）以及一项测量感知舒适人际距离（CID）的图形摆放任务。与预测相反，在AST与CPT分数之间以及ANSIE分数与涉及陌生人的CID距离之间，得到的相关系数为零。在CPT与CID分数之间得到了低但显著的相关性。对CID分数的方差分析显示，被试性别与控制点之间存在显著交互作用，难以解释，同时接近同伴的熟悉程度、身份地位和性别也有显著影响。实验者性别的显著效应表明，女性实验者测试时的距离比男性实验者测试时更大。女性被试的AST分数高于男性被试，且在男性实验者测试时比在女性实验者测试时更高。
