Personal space size and permeability
| Subject | Experimenter | Personal space size (cm) | Personal space permeability | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | D2 | |||
| Male | Male | 58.6 ± 38.5 | 28.3 ± 21.9 | 58.4 ± 17.9% |
| Female | 53.6 ± 23.6 | 19.4 ± 12.3 | 68.9 ± 15.5% | |
| Female | Male | 68.2 ± 25.0 | 30.8 ± 13.5 | 55.6 ± 8.9% |
| Female | 52.0 ± 21.2 | 23.4 ± 11.9 | 55.7 ± 9.5% | |
Average personal space sizes (Distance 1, D1) and personal space permeability (mean ± SD) of the male (n = 10) and female (n = 10) subjects in response to male and female experimenters as determined by the Stop Distance Paradigm (see Materials and Methods) are listed. Distance 2 (D2) is used to calculate the permeability of personal space.
