James M. Honeycutt is an American academic who is currently a lecturer on the faculty of Organizational Behavior, Coaching, and Consulting at the UT-Dallas Naveen Jindal School of Management.[1] He is best known for his Theory of Imagined Interactions (IIs). [2][note 1] [3] IIs are a form of social cognition in which an individual imagines and therefore indirectly experiences themselves in anticipated and/or past communicative encounters[note 2] with others.[4] II theory appears in communication encyclopedias,[5][4][3][2] handbooks [6][7] and graduate[8][9] and undergraduate textbooks.[10][11] [note 3] He is also a Distinguished Professor Emeritus at Louisiana State University.[12][13]

Early life and education

[edit]

Honeycutt was born in Dallas, Texas in 1956 to Frank and Arletha Honeycutt.[note 4][14] He was also raised in Dallas where he attended Lloyd V. Berkner High School, graduating with honors.[15] When he was fifteen, unexplained dehydration led him to self-diagnosis and seek treatment for his Insulin dependent (Type I) Diabetes.[16] He graduated Cum Laude from UT-Austin in 1979, with a B.S. degree in Interpersonal Communication and a minor in Social Psychology. His honors thesis, advised by Professor Robert Hooper, was titled "Matching of Interruptions, Talk Duration, Silence in Symmetrical and Complementary Dyads Based on Predispositions Toward Verbal Behavior".[17]

Honeycutt began his graduate study at Purdue University. He graduated in 1981 with an M.S. in Interpersonal Communication with a minor in Statistics and Research Methods. His Master's Thesis, chaired by Professor Robert W. Norton, was titled "Relative Commitment of an Individual and the Discriminability of Communicator Styles Used in the Marital Relationship". He received his Ph.D. from University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign in 1987 where he majored in Interpersonal, Family, and Relational Communication and minored in Social and Cognitive Psychology. His dissertation, "An Examination of Information Processing in Initial Interaction through Linking Input, Structure, and Outcome: Effects of Preinteraction Expectancies on Interpersonal Attraction and Interaction Structure", was chaired by Professor Dean E. Hewes, resulted in five publications in peer-reviewed journals.[14]

Academic career and teaching

[edit]

Honeycutt was hired as an assistant professor at LSU in 1986, where he taught for over three decades. He received tenure and was promoted to associate professor in 1991, full professor in 2001, and received the honorific Distinguished Professor in 2012.[18] In 1998, he served briefly as a visiting professor at UCSB. He retired from LSU as distinguished professor emeritus in 2019, and returned to his hometown of Dallas, Texas where he is a lecturer at the University of Texas at Dallas teaching courses in conflict resolution and mediation.

Throughout his teaching career, Honeycutt has focused on offering classes that correspond to his research interests. He offers Graduate and undergraduate seminars in the core interpersonal disciplines of interpersonal conflict, relational communication, family communication, and intercultural communication.[17] He also offers seminars that focus on he role of emotions in communication, the biological and physiological basis of communication, the evolutionary explanations for human communication behaviors, and of course, imagined interactions.[17]

Honeycutt founded the Matchbox Interaction Lab at LSU in 2007 where individuals, couples, and groups participating in research as subjects sit comfortably on sofas and discuss topics which are usually promoted by researchers, who then leave the room. Researchers are able to observe the interactions in the lab through one way glass, in addition to full audio and video recording capabilities.[19] If the research requires physiological data, the lab has the capability to record variables like heart rate and galvanic skin response. The name "Matchbox" was coined by students because when fiery conflict interactions occur between subjects based on the researchers' prompt, it's like the researcher lit a match that "sparked" the conflict.[19]

Honeycutt is also a member of several social science journal editorial boards. He is senior, managing co-editor of the interdisciplinary journal Imagination, Cognition and Personality with Keith Markman of Ohio University and Amedeo D'Angiulli of the Department of Neuroscience & Institute of Interdisciplinary Studies at Carleton University in Ontario.[20] The journal is produced by Sage Publications.[20]

Selected awards

[edit]

Honeycutt has been the recipient of numerous research awards. He was the recipient of 2011 LSU Rainmakers Senior Scholar Award in the humanities, social, and behavioral sciences for sustained research productivity over a 25-year period.[21] He was the recipient of the 2012 LSU Distinguished Faculty Award for scholarship in the humanities and social sciences, which recognizes a sustained record of excellence in research.[18] He was honored as an Outstanding Scholar in Communication Theory by the Southern States Communication Association in 2013.[22] The National Communication Association's Social Cognition Division awarded his first book on Imagined Interactions [23] the Distinguished Book Award in 2006.

Research and publishing

[edit]

Honeycutt's original work focused on the conflict-linkage function of IIs, which explains why arguments are so persistent in interpersonal relationships. Individuals may ruminate about conflicts through recalling prior arguments while also imagining anticipated conflict in future interactions. Imagining conflict interactions not only keeps the argument fresh in the mind, but also can cause physiological arousal and stress reactions.[7] Over time, II Theory has expanded to encompass five other functions as well and the thoery has been applied in a variety of contexts.[4]Honeycutt has authored five books, edited five books, published eighty peer-reviewed journal articles, authored forty-six book chapters for inclusion in edited academic books, and has contributed five invited encyclopedia entries to international communication encyclopedias.[17] Totaling his ten books with his one-hundred and thirty-one peer-reviewed or edited publications reveals his total scholarly contribution of 141 academic publications over more than three decades. Google Scholar's coverage for James M. Honeycutt is very close to this number, listing just over 140 publications.[24] [note 5] Honeycutt's publications have been cited 3398 [note 6] times, giving him an H-index of 34.[24] These metrics represent substantial publication according to the standards generally used within the discipline of communication.[note 7]

Research Area Selected Findings & Publications
1. Imagined Interaction Theory Findings Over time, II Theory has expanded into a robust theory which explains there are fourteen attributes of IIs. Six are the functions of IIs (why people use them) and eight are the characteristics of IIs (how people describe them).[4] The six functions are relational maintenance, conflict-linkage. rehearsal, self-understanding, catharsis, and compensation. The eight attributes describing IIs are frequency, proactivity, retroactivity, discrepancy, self-dominance variety, valence, specificity.[3]

2. Imagined Interaction Conflict-Linkage Findings Conflict-linkage was the original function theorized for IIs in the earliest iterations of the theory, and it has stood the test of time. It still provides an explanation for why arguments are so persistent in interpersonal relationships. Individuals may ruminate about conflicts through recalling prior arguments while also imagining anticipated conflict in future interactions. Imagining conflict interactions not only keeps the argument fresh in the mind, but also can cause physiological arousal and stress reactions.[7]

4. Intercultural Communication Findings Intercultural research in imagined interactions has shown the overall theory to be robosut across cultures, but there are cultural differences in how people use and experience IIs. For example, people in some cultures use IIs as a tool for grieving more frequently than in others.[2]

7. Music Therapy Findings Beginning with his (2001) research with Michael Eidenmuller, at the University of Texas at Tyler, Honeycutt's research into music and relational conflict has shown the benefits of listening to positive during conflict resolution conversations. In his research on road rage, Honeycutt (2010) found support for the Mozart Effect in the context of driving, with road rage being less common while drivers were playing classical music, even if drivers did not like classical music.[25]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Full text available from author here.[2]
  2. ^ IIs are distinct from fantasy due to their focus on actual or plausible interactions
  3. ^ This undergraduate text uses simplified language. Ch.10 refers to "imagined conversations", citing Honeycutt's imagined interactions research (endnote 21). Ch.9 indicates "some research suggests that serial conflicts persist when people rehearse interactions in their minds prior to engaging in them," citing Honeycutt's II conflict-linkage research (endnote 6).[11]
  4. ^ See Dedication, p.vi., for parents' names.[14]
  5. ^ GS lists 143, but the actual number is probably slightly lower, as a few publications appear to be erroneous. e.g., see note below.[24]
  6. ^ GS erroneously lists 4398, which is 1000 citations too high due to inclusion of the (Hargie, 2010) textbook.[24]
  7. ^ See, for comparison, the metrics of the top 1% most central scholars in Communication (on this article's talk page, Table in NPROF(1) evidence section, here.
