Orientations toward Interpersonal Arguing in Ukraine, Across Three War Conditions
Reconciling Conflicting Results of Cultural Diversity’s Effect on Project Team Performance
Guided by the Categorization-Elaboration Model, we developed and tested a model to reconcile the conflicting results of cultural diversity’s influence on team performance. Previous theory and studies have inconsistent arguments and evidence regarding cultural diversity’s effects on team performance. We recognize that member cultural diversity is one possible influence on the variety and meanings of messages generated within groups, and the messag…

Orientations toward interpersonal arguing in Chile
This paper reports the first empirical results aiming to characterize argumentative practices in Chile. We described features of Chilean interpersonal arguing among university students, compared those results with others obtained in the United States, and also compared the associations among variables from country to country. Chilean men displayed more aggressive and self-oriented arguing profiles than Chilean women. Compared to U.S. Americans, C…

Arguing in Mexico
In legal and educational circles, the quality of arguments has become a growing national concern in Mexico. We examined the motivations, understandings, and private reactions to arguing among Mexican college students, and compare these to data from the United States. Mexican men were more aggressive than women, which is not the case in all nations studied to this point. Mexicans were very substantially more oriented to civility than U.S. responde…
Arguing in Portugal
We report data on Portuguese understandings of interpersonal arguing, based on a survey conducted in Portugal (N = 252). Employing concepts and methods developed for studying interpersonal arguing, we report on the levels of argumentativeness, verbal aggressiveness, personalization of conflict, and argument frames. After comparing Portuguese men and women, we compare Portuguese respondents with two groups of US respondents. In contrast to US resp…
Appraisal models of intercultural communication apprehension among sojourners
We used R. S. Lazarus’ (Emotion and Adaptation. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1991) appraisal theory of emotions to propose a theoretical model of anxiety, upon which we built two empirical models centering on intercultural communication apprehension (ICA), distinguished by timing. We tested the models in three samples: Chinese in the US (N = 268), US Americans who studied abroad (N = 419), and US Americans in the US (N = 515). The models achi…
Communication Apprehension, Self-Perceived Communication Competence, and Willingness to Communication in Singapore
Based in the assertion that different cultures value aspects of communication differently, this study explored the position of Singapore on the continuum of communication apprehension (CA), self-perceived communication competence (SPCC), and willingness to communicate (WTC). Responses were obtained from 209 self-identified ethnic-Chinese born in Singapore and 105 Malay immigrants. The results revealed ethnic-Chinese to have low self-reported CA, …

Understandings of Arguing in India and the United States
This exploratory study analyzed the motivations and practices of argumentation in India, an increasingly important player in regional and international affairs. Indian data indicated that arguing patterns were influenced by age and gender. Younger men reported more playful arguing than women and older women reported being more stressed by arguments than men. Cross-culturally, Indians considered arguing less a part of civil discourse and reported …
Orientations to Interpersonal Arguing in the United Arab Emirates, with Comparisons to the United States, China, and India
United Arab Emirates (UAE) is currently a hub of 200 nationalities with a variety of lifestyles and religions. Nonetheless, the attitudes of locals towards reasoning with others have not yet been investigated. This investigation studied fundamental orientations to arguing among UAE residents (N = 157), with a range of self-report instruments including argument frames, personalization of conflict, argumentativeness, and verbal aggressiveness. Data…
Facial Similarity Mitigates the Persuasive Effects of Source Bias
This research examined how the interaction between a source's facial similarity to message targets and communicated bias affects audience persuadability. We used an evolutionary explanation to hypothesize that biased sources would elicit less favorable attitudes than unbiased sources for dissimilar sources, but that this difference would be absent for similar sources. Predictions were supported by results from a 2 (facial similarity) × 2 (source …
Understanding Argumentation in Interpersonal Communication
In this chapter, we review an important distinction in interpersonal argumentation between public-issue arguments and personal-issue arguments. Public-issue arguments focus on concerns outside an interpersonal dyad, whereas personal-issue arguments focus on issues tied closely to an interpersonal relationship. These two types of interpersonal arguments differ in terms of who argues about these topics, how argumentative episodes are interpreted an…
Blurting
Blurting is production of speech that is spontaneous, unedited, and negative in its repercussions. Study 1 (N = 230) analyzed open-ended descriptions of situations in which respondents had blurted and situations in which they had been tempted to blurt but stopped themselves. Coding of those materials supported our essential understanding of blurting. A self-report measure of blurting was developed and produced these findings: Blurters endorsed mo…
Serial arguments in inter-ethnic relationships
Testing Hierarchical Models of Argumentativeness and Verbal Aggressiveness
Support was found for a hierarchical model of argumentativeness theory (N = 1541) in which the second-order factors of motivation to argue and verbal aggressiveness exert top-down influence on subsidiary motives and attitudes. Emotional involvement with arguing and emotional involvement with verbal aggressing were added to clarify the originating theory and to improve model fit. The argumentativeness scale was heterogeneous, consisting of distinc…

Ironic Message Production
This paper addresses the conceptualization and production of irony. Specifically, psychological predispositions are used to identify what makes the production of an ironic message likely. Reasons for endorsing and suppressing ironic messages are discussed based on individuals’ goals in a situation. The importance of common ground between individuals during ironic message productions is also discussed. Results suggest (a) the suppression of ironic…

The Life Space of Personalized Conflicts
This chapter analyzes interpersonal conflicts by means of Lewin’s field theory, which requires a commitment to studying the actor’s life space, or perceptions of his or her environment. A particular focus here is on taking conflict personally (TCP), the feeling that interpersonal conflicts are antagonistic, punishing interactions in which an individual believes the other person is trying to hurt him or her on purpose. After two introductory secti…

Individual Differences in Cognitive Editing Standards
This study is aimed at understanding how people edit their own arguments prior to uttering them (Hample, 1984; Hample & Dallinger, 1985a, 1985b). The main categories of editorial criteria are effectiveness, principled objection to type of argument, person-centered issues, and discourse competence standards. Our main purpose here is to begin an account of what sort of person prefers which criteria. Argumentativeness (Infante & Rancer, 1982), verba…

Testing a model of value argument and evidence
A value argument is one in which the claim is a proposition of value. This paper suggests and tests a model of value argument which is intended to answer two questions: given particular arguments intended to prove a value claim, what degree of audience adherence to that claim may be expected? and given a variety of evidence to support a value claim, how may the most effective evidence be selected in advance? Specific hypotheses based on the attit…

The cognitive context of argument
This study provides a method for assessing the impact of cognitive context on belief systems, and shows how context influences the likelihood of belief change. Persuaded subjects did not seem to have tight contexts surrounding the belief at issue, while resistant subjects showed strong contextual force, even prior to the message. Related predictions regarding salience of topic were not supported. The model of argument used here explained substant…
Predicting belief and belief change using a cognitive theory of argument and evidence
This paper settles on a coherent mathematical description of the process of argument. Results show that the cognitive model typically explains between a quarter and a half of the variance in belief in an argument's claim, and a quarter of the variance in belief change. The most accurate results occur when a multiple regression equation is used to predict levels of belief in an argument's conclusion, and when stepwise multiple regression is used t…

Predicting immediate belief change and adherence to argument claims
This paper operationalizes the probative potential of evidence in argument, and evaluates the importance of evidence in predicting belief change in a pretest‐immediate posttest setting. In addition, adherence to argument claims is predicted with equations drawn from the work of McGuire and Wyer. Results confirm the traditionally recognized importance of evidence to persuasion and suggest some modification in the Wyer model
