Citations in the corpus

• Hurt Feelings in Couple Relationships: Towards Integrative Models of the Negative Effects of Hurtful Events (2004, background): “At the same time, it is important to note that criticism still generated substantial distress, perhaps because it is often seen as ‘face-threatening’ (Cupach & Carson, 2002).”
• Online Political Discourse: Exploring Differences in Effects of Civil and Uncivil Disagreement in News Website Comments (2017, methodology): “Respondents in the first two pre-tests rated the comments, using a positive face threat scale from prior research (Cupach & Carson, 2002).”
• Perceptions of Conflict Management Styles in Chinese Intergenerational Dyads (2005, background): “Like complaints or reproaches, criticism constitutes a facethreatening act (Cupach & Carson, 2002) that can lead to relational devaluation and precipitate conflict (Carson & Cupach, 2000; Witteman, 1992; Zhang, 2004).”
• Participation Apprehensive Students: The Influence of Face Support and Instructor–Student Rapport on Classroom Participation (2014, methodology): “Face threat was evaluated using a scale developed by Cupach and Carson (2002) that measured perceived face threat on two dimensions, both measured on a scale ranging from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (7).”
• Face threat sensitivity in negotiation: Roadblock to agreement and joint gain (2004, background): “Both types of face could certainly be threatened during a negotiation, but positive face is more important for relationships (Cupach & Carson, 2002; Cupach & Messman, 1999), and therefore more likely to be linked to the success of integrative agreements.”
