Abstract
The symbolic interactionist model of self-concept, also known as the reflected appraisal process, was adopted as the theoretical framework to investigate the effects of social interaction processes on the self-appraisals of adult participants in a small group. Interpersonal behavior ratings of actual other, reflected, and self-appraisals were collected in a two-wave panel design from 99 adults participating in human relations training groups. Covariance structure models were used to estimate the causal paths of the reflected appraisal process. Evidence supporting the conventional model of reflected appraisal was mixed. Actual appraisals had moderate effects on reflected appraisals, and had no effects on self-appraisals when reflected appraisals were controlled
