Thesis (Ph.D.)--Emory University, 1985.

The purpose of this study was to examine six issues related to constructing another individual's point of view: people's accuracy in constructing the points of view of specific individuals, the sources of information people use when constructing other points of view, the relative importance of different sources of information, whether the availability of different sources depends on the closeness of the friendship, whether the sources vary across knowledge domains, and whether friends are more similar in their organization of knowledge than superficial acquaintances. Subjects were asked to organize domains of knowledge (i.e., recreational and philosophical categories) from the points of view of close and superficial acquaintances. More specifically, subjects were asked to order exemplars in categories according to some dimension from a particular point of view. Of interest was which of five sources of information about the person whose point of view was being taken were used by subjects to construct these points of view. These sources of information were cultural knowledge (e.g., about average Americans), demographic knowledge (e.g., about white females in their twenties), occupational knowledge (e.g., about clinical psychology graduate students), accurate knowledge about the person whose point of view was being constructed, and knowledge about oneself (i.e., the person constructing the point of view). Further judgments were collected from subjects to assess these five sources of information. Subjects were far from being perfectly accurate at constructing the points of view of their acquaintances and were only slightly more accurate for friends than for superficial acquaintances. In constructing points of view, subjects generally employed sources of information in the following order: occupational information, information about oneself, information about the person whose point of view was being taken, demographic information, cultural information. Subjects generally appeared to use more specific stereotypes in the absence of specific information about an individual and tended to use the same sources of information for more than one person. Subjects used information about the person whose point of view was being taken more often when the person was a close friend, although close friends were no more similar in their organization of knowledge than were superficial acquaintances. Finally, the sources of information used to construct a point of view depended on the knowledge domain. Across subjects, particular sources were consistently associated with particular categories as well as with recreational and philosophical categories taken together.Subjects--Topical Terms:
