Isi artikel

A field experiment (study 1, N = 228) and a questionnaire study (study 2 , N = 120) were conducted to investigate determinants of gratitude expressions of british speakers. Based on brown and levinson's politeness theory, the mai hypothessis was that the greater the giver's imposition in benefiting the receiver, the more polite the receiver's expression would be. Study 1 examined in four differnt situations participants' responses to a giver who opened a door for them. The experimenter's gaze and the extent of his imposiiton were shown to affect the results. Study 2 manipulated the extent of giver's imposition and the locus of the repsonsibility (neither, receiver, giver). Tendencies to use more polite expressions in the large imposition conditions were as expected and were lessened in the giver responsible situations. In addition, in receiver or giver responsible situations, apology type expressions were often used.
