• Resumen

  • A large amount of research has indicated that vocal activity, or how much an individual talks, is a major, and often ignored variable in interpersonal interactions. In the past, vocal activity has been related strongly to rankings of leadership, influence, and liking. The present study sought to examine the relationships between vocal activity and three other, less often examined variables: the attribution of quality contributions, perceived listening, and perceived understanding. Correlational analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between activity and attribution of quality contributions. Significant negative relationships were observed between vocal activity and perceived listening and understanding.
