David A. Kenny on Interaction - Dictionary of Arguments
Corr I 49 Interaction/Situation/Psychology/Kenny/Asendorpf: One particularly relevant source of person-situation interaction has been surprisingly often ignored in discussions of cross-situational consistency within personality psychology: variation of dyadic social interaction in terms of who the interaction partners. (…) Many of our daily situations are dyadic interactions. In this case, person-situation interactions are by and large person-person interactions because the interaction partner largely defines the situation. Because persons cannot interact with themselves and because persons and situations are not statistically independent factors. >situations/psychological theories, >personality traits/psychological theories. Kenny and colleagues developed the social relations model (SRM) that distinguishes actor effects, target effects and relationship effects In SRM, the actor parameter corresponds to the trait of ((s) e.g.) aggressiveness: to what extent do I react aggressively to others? The target parameter (sometimes also called partner parameter) is a different trait, often ignored in studies of aggression: to what extent do I make others aggressive? Actor and target parameters can correlate positively or negatively. SRM analyses are increasingly used in person perception, dyadic relationship and family research (e.g., Cook 2000(1); Kenny, Mohr and Levesque 2001)(2). 1. Cook, W. L. 2000.
