Furthermore, allocentrics and idiocentrics did not appear to differ in their person-perception abilities, but men tended to consider others to be similar to themselves. The attractiveness of experimental partners was unrelated to their allocentrism or idiocentrism, or to their levels of private and public self-consciousness. Instead, their attractiveness was influenced by the ways they were perceived by their partners. Some evidence indicated that persons who are perceived as similar to oneself are better liked. However, people who were perceived as cooperative, flexible, attentive, independent, and self-reliant were better liked than either selfish or dependent individuals.","Descriptions and evaluations of experimental partners suggested that allocentrism and idiocentrism may be opposite poles in a multidimensional space.
