Does accuracy matter? A review of the consequences of accurate personality impressions as a function of context and content. Lauren Gazzard Kerr, Lauren J Human. Social and Personality Psychology Compass, December 3 2022. https://doi.org/10.1111/spc3.12718

Abstract: What are the implications of seeing others as they see themselves? That is, does viewing others accurately have consequences, positive or negative, to relationship evaluations (e.g., liking)? To address this, the current article provides a comprehensive review of the personality accuracy literature and discusses related work from the self-verification and empathic accuracy domains. We specifically explore whether the consequences of accurate perceptions could be influenced by two key categories of moderators: the context of the impression (e.g., high vs. low stakes) and content of the impression (e.g., desirability of traits). Lastly, we discuss future directions to aid our understanding of this question.
