Origins of SST
•Social psychology research
–social interaction
–non-verbal communication
•Behavioural training
–laboratory-based research
–behaviour modification
•Clinical observations and research
–behaviour and symptoms in m
ental illness

Research on NVC
This experim
ent involved m
easuring
amounts of eye contact betw
een
two people conversing with each
other across a table. Variables
manipulated were (a) gender, (b)
distance betw
een the speakers.
The vertical axis shows eye contact tim
e in
seconds; the horizontal axis shows distance
apart. Source: M

Social interaction and social phobia
•Relatively rare as a form of mono-symptomatic anxiety; usually seen in
combination with other problems
•general surveys show high rates of shyness and other forms of interpersonal
difficulty. This m
ay contribute to loneliness and social isolation
•several models of social phobia: (a) skill deficit; (b) cognitive self-evaluation; (c)
classical conditioning; (d) personality trait; (e) cognitive perspective-taking
•integrated m
odel combines variables of motivation to impress andlow
‘impression-relevant’ outcome expectations
•social anxious people are perceived as less socially skilled:
–initiate few
er conversations
–lower frequency and duration of speech
–longer silences
–less smiling
–more limited facial expressions
–speech dysfluencies
–more fidgeting m
ovements
•cognitive factors include negative self-statements and adoption of an ‘observer’
perspective during interaction

Social interaction in depression
•Main findings most frequently reported:
–lower social activity level
–lower assertiveness
–lower positive response rates
–lower positive reaction rates
–higher rate of self-reference in speech
•depressed clients report higher rates of interpersonal difficulties and
perceive themselves as less socially skilled
•there are discrepancies betw
een general interpersonal cues and specific
behaviours
•inappropriate levels of self-disclosure are a possible factor but cannot
explain interpersonal im
pact
•cognitive patterns of self-blame and expressions of hopelessness
•alienating effects on listeners: stronger for opposite-sex interactions;
mediated by feelings induced in listeners

Social interaction and schizophrenia
•‘Positive symptoms’ in behaviour and speech perceived as socially
inappropriate
•‘N
egative symptoms’ entail inappropriate affect, social withdrawal
•early research appeared to identify family interaction patterns that were
‘schizophrenogenic’
•poor social interaction patterns are not now seen as aetiologically
significant
•BUT onset of episodes may be associated with significant life events in the
interpersonal domain
•there is an association betw
een family interaction patterns and long-term
progress and outcome (high EE)
•some research suggests features including (but results inconsistent):
–low rates of eye contact
–poor turn-taking in conversations
–low sensitivity to non-verbal cues
–inappropriate speech volume and tone
•differences observed depend on the conversational domain
•differences appear to exist in complex interactionalvariables, e.g.
‘rew
arding-ness’, ‘meshing’ skills

1Social skill deficit or the influence of:
emotional states?
cognitive factors?
low self-esteem
?
2Molar versusmolecular target behaviours?
3Response consequences versusresponse quality.
4Situational influences on the effectiveness of responses.
5Static versusdynamic assessm
ent methods.
6Availability and rate of occurrence of natural reinforcers.
7Perform
ance-class independence
(situational specificity versusgeneralizability).
8Use of frequency / duration m
easures and/or quality ratings.
9Ecological validity of role-play tests.
