Research on the hyperpersonal model originally described how the substitution of language for nonverbal cues, necessitated by text-based computer-mediated communication systems, transforms users’ reception, self-presentation, composition, and reciprocal reinforcement of messages in ways that create socially desirable relationships online. This article reviews the model after 25 years. It explicates the original model and mentions a sample of illustrative findings. It reflects on the state of internet diffusion and research traditions in the 1990s that affected the model’s original focus, and how these conditions have changed. It enumerates contexts that continue to meet the model’s original boundary assumptions, and some boundary expansions. It explores ways in which the model’s principles extend into contemporary multi-modal social media. It illustrates the evolutionary applicability of the model through cases of deceptive online romances, including contemporary online romance scams. It concludes by suggesting future research examining how many contemporary social media performances and responses comport with and illustrate the model’s tenets, at scale.

语言、心理学和新媒体：25 年来中介传播的超个人模型

对超个人模型的研究最初描述了基于文本的计算机中介通信系统需要用语言替代非语言线索如何改变用户的接收、自我呈现、组合和信息的相互强化，从而创造社会所需的关系在线的。本文回顾了 25 年后的模型。它解释了原始模型并提到了一个说明性发现的样本。它反映了 1990 年代影响模型最初关注点的互联网传播状态和研究传统，以及这些条件如何变化。它列举了继续满足模型原始边界假设的上下文，以及一些边界扩展。它探讨了该模型的原则扩展到当代多模式社交媒体的方式。它通过欺骗性网络恋情案例（包括当代网络恋情骗局）说明了该模型的演进适用性。最后，它提出了未来的研究，以检查有多少当代社交媒体表现和反应符合并说明了该模型的原则。
