Abstract: We examined how the convergence of a configural cue (the orientation of a configuration) with social cues (the egocentric and other-centric perspectives) influences the dynamics of perspective selection. Listeners received instructions (e.g., “Give me the folder on the left”) from a simulated partner, whose depicted position around a table varied. They selected objects from triangular configurations that were aligned with their own perspective (ego-aligned), their partner’s perspective (other-aligned), or neither perspective. Listeners who adopted the partner’s perspective (other-centric responders) were influenced more by the configural cue than egocentric responders, making faster mouse trajectories with fewer directional shifts on other-aligned (vs. ego-aligned) configurations and more deviated trajectories on neither-aligned configurations. Although other-centric responding incurs a cognitive cost—indicated by overall slower and more complex trajectories than egocentric responding—it enhances sensitivity to configural cues that potentially facilitate perspective-taking. Such configural cues can be ignored when responding egocentrically, along with social cues.
