초록

목소리로 성격을 유추할 수 있는가? 본 연구는 여성이 목소리만으로 남성의 외향성을 타당하게 판단할 수 있는지 알아보았다. 연구 1의 여성 참가자들은 파트너와 함께 연극 대사를 읽는 약 15초의 남성의 목소리를 통해 외향성을 판단하였다. 예상한대로 목소리를 통해 지각된 외향성은 남성이 보고한 외향성 점수, 행동 활성화 체계, 그리고 친구의 수와 유의미한 관련성이 있었다. 이어서 연구 2의 여성 참가자들은 혼자서 신문 기사를 읽는 약 3초의 남성의 목소리를 듣고 외향성을 판단하였다. 그 결과, 지각된 외향성은 동일 시기의 외향성 점수뿐 아니라 8개월 후 사회적 활동에서 경험하는 즐거움의 정도, 성취 및 쾌락적 가치관과 정적 상관을 보였다. 본 연구는 몇 초에 불과한 짧은 목소리가 개인의 성격을 추론하는 타당한 지표가 될 수 있음을 보여준다.

Abstract

Can people make valid personality judgments from a person’s voice? This study examined whether women could judge men’s extraversion level based solely on their voices. In Study 1, 51 females rated the extraversion level of male participants after hearing their voices recorded during a scripted dialogue with a confederate. The raters’ extraversion ratings correlated with the target person’s self-reported extraversion, behavioral activation system, and number of reported friends. In Study 2, 47 females rated the extraversion level of males after hearing a 3-second recording of a news article they read alone. Again, extraversion judged from the voice clips correlated with the target’s self-reported extraversion level, and 8 months later, with the amount of pleasure experienced in social activities and importance attached to achievement and hedonic values. Our research suggests that a person’s voice, disclosed merely a few seconds, can serve as a reliable cue for inferring his/her personality.
