An experiment examined the effects of expectations about an interaction and sex of subjects on member attraction and interpersonal distance in a small group. Groups of subjects and a moderator completed ratings, discussed a socially relevant issue, then again completed ratings. Participants were completely "free" to select their own seating positions. Results indicated that type of expectation produced specific alterations in intersubject attraction, but did not influence subject-moderator attraction. These differences were neatly reflected in subjects' seating choices. Finally, the importance of expected interaction "cli mate" was underscored for any theory of human spatial behavior.
