ABSTRACT

On a scale of 1–10, where 1 is difficult and 10 is easy, how do you feel about greeting:

just one friend of the same sex as you?

just one friend of the opposite sex?

a group of friends of the same sex as you?

a group of friends of the opposite sex or a mix of males and females?

new people in a familiar place, for example, at college/work?

new people not 'on your territory' - perhaps in a pub or a waiting room?
