Differential Effects of Sexual Composition and Interactional Context on Interaction Patterns in Dyads.

Fisher, B. Aubrey

Human Communication Research, v9 n3 p225-38 Spr 1983

Investigated the impact of sexual composition and competitive/cooperative orientation on interaction patterns in same-sex and mixed-sex dyads. Found that the competitive or cooperative orientation of the interactants exerts a far greater impact on the communication behavior of dyads than does their sexual composition. (PD)
