(2014): Unwritten rules. Virtual bargaining underpins social interaction, culture, and society. In: Trends in cognitive sciences 18 (10), S. 512-519. DOI: 10.1016/j.tics.2014.05.010
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25073460 Abstract: Many social interactions require humans to coordinate their behavior across a range of scales. However, aspects of intentional coordination remain puzzling from within several approaches in cognitive science. Sketching a new perspective, we propose that the complex behavioral patterns - or 'unwritten rules' - governing such coordination emerge from an ongoing process of 'virtual bargaining'. Social participants behave on the basis of what they would agree to do if they were explicitly to bargain, provided the agreement that would arise from such discussion is commonly known. Although intuitively simple, this interpretation has implications for understanding a broad spectrum of social, economic, and cultural phenomena (including joint action, team reasoning, communication, and language) that, we argue, depend fundamentally on the virtual bargains themselves. zitiert von 27

(2009) : Conversational inference. Social cognition as interactional intelligence In: Strack, Fritz; Förster, Jens; Strack, Fritz (Ed); Förster, Jens (Ed) (Hg.): Social cognition: The basis of human interaction: New York, NY, US: Psychology Press, S. 71-92
Abstract: The term social cognition has been used by psychologists to describe distinct objects of study. In one meaning, social cognition can be characterized as the application of cognitive psychology to understand how judgments are made about social objects. So, cognitive theories about category prototypes were used to understand stereotypes about social groups, and the distinction between automatic and controlled processing has been used by social psychologists to better understand social judgment processes such as sentencing offenders in a criminal court. In this chapter, the author is concerned with a different sense of social cognition, namely, the social psychology of higher mental processes. In this view, social cognition informs the process of understanding itself through equipping individuals with the interactional intelligence that enables them to communicate with others through successful language use and understanding. The author presents some recent thinking in linguistics to illustrate this perspective before returning to its implications for the psychology of reasoning and judgment.

(2009): Social understanding through direct perception? Yes, by interacting. In: Consciousness and cognition 18 (2). DOI: 10.1016/j.concog.2008.10.007
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.concog.2008.10.007 Abstract: This paper comments on Gallagher's recently published direct perception proposal about social cognition [Gallagher, S. (2008a). Direct perception in the intersubjective context. Consciousness and Cognition, 17(2), 535-543]. I show that direct perception is in danger of being appropriated by the very cognitivist accounts criticised by Gallagher (theory theory and simulation theory). Then I argue that the experiential directness of perception in social situations can be understood only in the context of the role of the interaction process in social cognition. I elaborate on the role of social interaction with a discussion of participatory sense-making to show that direct perception, rather than being a perception enriched by mainly individual capacities, can be best understood as an interactional phenomenon.

(2008) : Neue Wege zur leistungsbasierten Erfassung sozialer Intelligenz und erste Befunde In: Sarges, Werner; Scheffer, David (Hg.): Innovative Ansätze für die Eignungsdiagnostik: Göttingen: Hogrefe, S. 129-143
Abstract: Es wird informiert über die Entwicklung und Validierung des "Magdeburger Tests zur Sozialen Intelligenz" (SIM). Zunächst werden Überlegungen zur Bedeutung sozialer Kompetenzen in der Eignungsdiagnostik angestellt und terminologische Aspekte geklärt. Außerdem werden einige grundlegende methodische Probleme bei der Messung sozialer Intelligenz einschließlich möglicher Lösungen beschrieben: fehlender Theoriebezug; unsystematische Verwendung von Messkonzepten und Aufgabeninhalten; fehlender Realitätsbezug; dekontextualisierte Stimuli. Im SIM wird soziales Verständnis durch Szenarien erfasst. In Aufgaben zum sozialen Gedächtnis werden Probanden in limitierter Darbietungszeit mit sozialen Stimuli konfrontiert, deren Details sie anschließend korrekt erinnern sollen. Bei den Aufgaben zur sozialen Wahrnehmung werden Zielreize präsentiert, auf die die Probanden im anschließend gezeigten Aufgabenmaterial so schnell wie möglich reagieren sollen. Ein Validierung wurde an einer Stichprobe von 126 Studierenden vorgenommen. Strukturbefunde und Befunde zu den Außenbezügen sozialer Intelligenz werden mitgeteilt. Es wird betont, dass es mit den bisherigen Arbeiten gelungen ist, das facettentheoretisch konzipierte Modell der sozialen Intelligenz zu operationalisieren, leistungsbasiert reliabel zu erfassen und einige Aspekte der Konstruktvalidität nach innen (Binnenstruktur) und nach außen (Abgrenzung von der akademischen Intelligenz und allgemeinen auditiven Fähigkeiten) zu belegen.

(2008): Inverse zombies, anesthesia awareness, and the hard problem of unconsciousness. In: Consciousness and cognition 17 (4), S. 1163-1168. DOI: 10.1016/j.concog.2008.06.004
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18635380 Abstract: Philosophical (p-) zombies are constructs that possess all of the behavioral features and responses of a sentient human being, yet are not conscious. P-zombies are intimately linked to the hard problem of consciousness and have been invoked as arguments against physicalist approaches. But what if we were to invert the characteristics of p-zombies? Such an inverse (i-) zombie would possess all of the behavioral features and responses of an insensate being, yet would nonetheless be conscious. While p-zombies are logically possible but naturally improbable, an approximation of i-zombies actually exists: individuals experiencing what is referred to as "anesthesia awareness." Patients under general anesthesia may be intubated (preventing speech), paralyzed (preventing movement), and narcotized (minimizing response to nociceptive stimuli). Thus, they appear--and typically are--unconscious. In 1-2 cases/1000, however, patients may be aware of intraoperative events, sometimes without any objective indices. Furthermore, a much higher percentage of patients (22% in a recent study) may have the subjective experience of dreaming during general anesthesia. P-zombies confront us with the hard problem of consciousness--how do we explain the presence of qualia? I-zombies present a more practical problem--how do we detect the presence of qualia? The current investigation compares p-zombies to i-zombies and explores the "hard problem" of unconsciousness with a focus on anesthesia awareness.

(2007): Language and theory of mind: meta-analysis of the relation between language ability and false-belief understanding. In: CHILD DEVELOPMENT 78 (2), S. 622-646. DOI: 10.1111/j.1467-8624.2007.01018.x
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17381794 Abstract: Numerous studies show that children's language ability is related to false-belief understanding. However, there is considerable variation in the size of the correlation reported. Using data from 104 studies (N=8,891), this meta-analysis determines the strength of the relation in children under age 7 and examines moderators that may account for the variability across studies--including aspect of language ability assessed, type of false-belief task used, and direction of effect. The results indicate a moderate to large effect size overall that remains significant when age is controlled. Receptive vocabulary measures had weaker relations than measures of general language. Stronger effects were found from earlier language to later false belief than the reverse. Significant differences were not found among types of false-belief task.

(2005): Understanding and being understood. The impact of intelligence and dispositional valuations on social relationships.
Abstract: The current dissertation investigated the role of cognitive personality traits on the mutual understanding between interaction partners. For this purpose, main effects of intelligence and dispositional valuations were studied (n=1099). In addition, it was asked whether within-dyad personality differences affect mutual understanding and whether gifted individuals differ from a comparison group of university students in their level of social adjustment. Results indicated that individuals perceive a relation between the intelligence level of their interaction partners and the quality of their social relationships. However, such an effect could not be replicated with psychometric intelligence measures (with the exception of vocabulary). Second, the results of the current study did not support the contention that dyadic personality differences constrain communication quality. Third, it could be shown that the sample of gifted individuals was less well adjusted than the sample of college graduates. However, several indications were found that this was not due to their extremely high intelligence but to an oversampling of gifted individuals with adjustment problems. Together, the results showed that mutual understanding is an important factor in the development of close relationships. However, the limited impact of intelligence and dispositional valuations on the quality of dyadic interactions suggests that most people are able to cope with the demands of interpersonal interactions without having a high intelligence level. In addition, most conversation partners seem able to understand each other in spite of within-dyad personality differences.
