contents Hostile Attribution Biases and Evaluation of Vocally Enacted Responses to Peer Provocation in Early Adolescents Peyton Nault Michele Morningstar Social Development ABSTRACTHostile Attribution Bias (HAB) is the tendency to perceive ambiguous social information as threatening. The social information processing (SIP) model provides a theoretical framework for determining how individuals with HAB perceive, interpret, and make decisions regarding social cues. Although previous work has mapped the association between HAB and youths’ behavioral responses to peer provocation, little attention has been given to how nonverbal cues (e.g., tone of voice) shape youths’ evaluations of different response strategies. The current study explores the association between HAB and youths’ assessments of vocally enacted peer provocation scenarios and responses, focusing on both the “interpretation of cues” (i.e., how youth viewed the provocation) and “selection of response” (i.e., how they evaluated the appropriateness of various responses to the provocation) stages of the SIP model. In an online study, 129 English‐speaking 10–14‐year‐old participants (51.9% female) heard audio recordings of peer provocation and rated them on the perceived threat, hostility, and intent of the provocateur (“interpretation” stage). Additionally, participants heard pre‐recorded audio clips of other teenagers’ “hostile” and “affiliative” responses to each scenario and indicated the appropriateness of these responses for the situation (“selection of response” stage). HAB scores were associated with differential ratings of hostile‐ versus affiliative‐sounding responses, with youth with higher HAB scores rating affiliative responses as less appropriate. Moreover, attributing more hostility, threat, and intentionality to the provocateur was associated with higher ratings of appropriateness for hostile responses only. Findings highlight how youths’ HAB/interpretations of situations are associated with their evaluation of the nonverbal aspects of various responses to provocation. 10.1111/sode.12813 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
