Diagnosis and Management of the Metabolic Syndrome: An American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Scientific Statement
The metabolic syndrome has received increased attention in the past few years. This statement from the American Heart Association (AHA) and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) is intended to provide up-to-date guidance for professionals on the diagnosis and management of the metabolic syndrome in adults. The metabolic syndrome is a constellation of interrelated risk factors of metabolic origin— metabolic risk factors —that appea…
Muscular Activity in the Arm during Lexical Retrieval: Implications for Gesture-Speech Theories
Coordination of knowledge in communication: Effects of speakers' assumptions about what others know
Two pairs of studies examined effects of perspective taking in communication, using a 2-stage methodology that first obtained people's estimates of the recognizability to others of specific stimuli (public figures and everyday objects) and then examined the effects of these estimates on message formulation in a referential communication task. Ss were good at estimating stimulus identifiability but were biased in the direction of their own knowled…
Do conversational hand gestures communicate
In 5 experiments, male and female undergraduates viewed gestures and tried to select the words that originally accompanied them; read interpretations of gestures* meanings and tried to select the words that originally had accompanied them; tried to recognize gestures they previously had seen, presented either with or without the accompanying speech; and assigned gestures and the accompanying speech to semantic categories.On all 4 tasks, performan…

The Role of the Listener: Addressee Influences on Message Formulation
Psycholinguistic models tend to depict speech production as a unidirectional process in which speakers create messages for generic addressees. Missing from such characterisations is an analysis of the process by which addressees influence the form and content of messages created for them. Addressees affect message form and content in at least two ways: (1) Their personal characteristics help define the common ground they share with the speaker an…
Verbal, vocal, and visible factors in judgments of another's affect
Columbia University Two studies investigated the extent to which variance in observers' judgments of affect made on the basis of full-channel (audiovisual) presentations is accounted for by verbal (written transcripts), vocal (content-filtered speech), and visible (silent video) information. Stimulus materials for Study 1 were taken from the 1976 Dole-Mondale vice-presidential debate, and those for Study 2 were taken from personal interviews with…
Effects of pitch and speech rate on personal attributions
In three experiments, subjects listened to recordings of male speakers answering two interview questions and rated the speakers on a variety of scales. The recordings had been altered so that the pitch of the speakers' voices was raised or lowered by 20% or left at its normal level, and speech rate was expanded or compressed by 30% or left at its normal rate. The results provided clear evidence that listeners use these acoustic properties in maki…
The role of audible and visible back-channel responses in interpersonal communication
Pitch changes during attempted deception
This paper explores consumer investment choice in long-term energy conservation technology and assesses energy saving behaviour in the housing and transportation domains. The long-term energy conservation choice problem is conceptualized as a portfolio choice problem. A cross effects choice design is developed in which respondents were shown one or more alternate ways to reduce their current energy consumption: (1) investing in new technology in …
Social Psychology in the Soviet Union
Although most American psychologists are at least vaguely aware of Soviet research in such areas as conditioning, development, and neuropsychology, I suspect that even well-read American social psychologists have little knowledge of the work of their Russian counterparts. Judging from the literature available in English, social psychology has begun to figure importantly among the behavioral sciences in the USSR only in the past two decades. In on…
