The motive for support and the identification of responsive partners
Can I count on you to be there for me? Individual differences in a knowledge structure
In Study 1, the authors applied the prototype methodology to identify indicators that people use to predict whether a potential partner will "be there" for them at future times of stress. Using these indicators, the authors constructed a new type of measure of individual differences, the Knowledge of Indicators (KNOWI) Scale. It assesses knowledge of indicators that lead to an expectation that a partner will be there when needed. This measure app…
How Interpersonal Motives Clarify the Meaning of Interpersonal Behavior: A Revised Circumplex Model
Circumplex models have organized interpersonal behavior along 2 orthogonal dimensions-communion (which emphasizes connection between people) and agency (which emphasizes one person's influence over the other). However, many empirical studies have disconfirmed certain predictions from these models. We therefore revised the model in 4 ways that highlight interpersonal motives. In our revision: (a) the negative pole of communion is indifference, not…
Narrative Structure in Recounted Sad Memories
This study examines variation in the narrative structure of recounted sad memories from defensive (sometimes called avoidant or repressive) and nondefensive participants. Defensiveness was operationally defined by high scores on the Marlowe- Crowne (MC) Social Desirability Scale (Crowne & Marlowe, 1960). In a laboratory interview, participants were asked to discuss past depressive episodes. Transcribed interviews were analyzed for narrative struc…

When do opposites attract? Interpersonal complementarity versus similarity
Two experiments examined whether interpersonal complementarity or similarity influences people's satisfaction with dyadic interactions. Participants in complementary partnerships (submissive people with dominant partners, dominant people with submissive partners) reported more satisfaction than did those with similar partners. In Study 1 complementarity referred to the match between, the participants' self-reported interpersonal style (dominant o…
The puzzle of negative self-views: An exploration using the schema concept
People with negative self-views seem to behave more predictably than people with positive self-views. To explain this puzzle, the authors conceptualized a self-view as a schema and postulated that negative self-views are more tightly organized schemas than are positive self-views. Studies 1a and 1b demonstrated that the elements of a negative self-view are more tightly interconnected than those of a positive self-view. Studies 2-6 demonstrated an…
Self-derogations and the interpersonal theory
The interpersonal theory of personality has been applied to explain depressed people's dilemma: The depressed person's submissive behavior invites dominating reactions from other people, and those reactions sustain the depressed person's depression. Experiments 1 and 2 showed that self-derogations connote submissiveness but are generally judged to be neutral in affiliation. Experiment 3 tested implications for the behavior of dysphoric and nondys…

Poor social performance of lonely people: Lacking a skill or adopting a role
A substantial literature has shown that lonely people differ from nonlonely people on a variety of measures of social performance. These differences have usually been conceptualized as a social skills deficit, which implies that lonely people lack the ability to perform appropriate and effective social behavior. Rather than a lack of this ability, the authors hypothesize that the adoption of passive interpersonal roles predisposes lonely people t…
Attributional style of lonely and depressed people
This article examines the attributional style of lonely and depressed people. Previous studies have suggested that both lonely and depressed individuals ascribe failure to characterological defects in themselves. However, the prototype of a lonely person and the prototype of a depressed person suggest that this characteristic attributional style should mainly hold for interpersonal failures. A questionnaire was formed, consisting of 20 hypothetic…
A Single Digit as a Cue for Recalling Two-Digit Numbers
This study examined S's memory for 2-digit numbers. During recall, one digit of each number appeared as a cue and S had to recall the entire number. The cue was either the first digit or the second. For English speakers the initial digit was a better cue. German speakers, though, utter the digits in reverse order. For them the superiority of the initial digit disappeared
