Abstract / Description of output
We study how Extraversion and Neuroticism influence people’s language production in interpersonal interactive situations. A priming study used confederate priming methodology to investigate syntactic priming behaviour. We expected that Extravert sociability would be related to the strength of priming effects, although Neurotic emotionality might also have an effect. Results indicate that Extraversion has no effect, but Neuroticism does have an effect. We discuss possible reasons and suggest further experimentation to investigate this finding. Implications and applications of this work are outlined. Personality and interaction Individuals differ in the way they speak and write.
