N2 - The aim of the current contribution is to plead for future research to adopt a truly dyadic and dynamic approach when studying feedback processes. We first explain how the current depiction of feedback processes might have been overly static and one-sided, and therefore risks providing an incomplete picture. Next, we identify conceptual logics for linking feedback-seeking and feedback delivery within dyads and profile a few studies that have begun to bridge the disconnect between feedback-seeking and feedback-giving. Finally, we provide potential avenues to begin studying feedback processes in a different way.
