The paper deals with the phenomenon of perceptual-auditory divergence in the evaluation of the foreign language communication partner’s emotional-modal state. The problem of “human – human” interaction (vice versa “man – machine”) is characterized by a very complex phenomenon associated with the communication “native language – foreign language” taking into account the idiosyncrasy of speech production and speech perception. The idiosyncrasy can be determined from the positions of the individual mixing of various types of information (e.g., biological, psychological, social, cognitive, etc.). All these factors affect the process of recognizing the communication partner’s emotional-modal state. Therefore, one can assume that the idiosyncratic features of the perceiver (in this case, the listener) affect, in turn, the evaluation of the emotional-modal state, primarily that of a foreign language communication partner. In our pilot study special emphasis is laid on this problem considered on the basis of Russian-German and German-Russian matches. The obtained data suggest a new model of perceptual-auditory processing of verbal stimuli including such components as perceptual-auditory idiosyncrasy and auditory-perceptual cognitive entropy.
