personal representation of the interaction

Reputation of a Neighbor, or Who Lives Near Us?

The article presents the results of empirical study that addresses perception of neighbors. As a major empirical method we used a questionnaire, using reflexive self-report technique «I – Other», which includes verbal statements and graphic representations. It revealed the presence of two strategies of perception and evaluation of neighbors: egocentric, focused on vested interest of a person, and dialogic, focused on the establishment of active connections and relationships with neighbors.
