perception to others

This research investigated how closeness with a friend and discrepancy between ideal self and actual self affected perception to others. They rated "individual evaluation" and "social desirability" about ideal self, actual self, and their friend. Closeness with a friend was measured, too. The main results were as follows: on "social desirability" individuals with large discrepancy tended to evaluate a close friend low, and a less close friend high. On "individual evaluation" individuals tended to evaluate a close friend high and a less close friend low regardless of discrepancy size. The results indicated that "social desirability" was a dimension of general evaluation, so they regulated perception to others according to closeness and discrepancy in comparing self with others daily. And "individual evaluation" did not reflect sociality but judgment of individual likability , so they evaluated their friend high according to their closeness.
