社会权力意味着责任。然而,掌权者往往只追求自己的利益,而忽视了这一责任。本研究阐明了当一个人获得高(与低)权力时,先前采用的认知焦点如何引导感知的责任。在三个实验中,采用认知关注另一个人(相对于自我或接管另一个人的观点)促进了在随后的环境中获得高(但不是低)权力的个人的感知责任。这种影响是特定的感知责任-认知关注另一个人并没有改变感知的机会,以追求目标或感知的关系,以互动伙伴(例如,人际关系密切)。虽然先前的研究探讨了社会价值观(即,长期关心他人)指导那些掌握权力的人的责任,目前的研究结果强调,仅仅是认知过程(即,情境性地将注意力集中在他人身上)改变了那些即将获得权力的人的责任感。
Social power implies responsibility. Yet, power-holders often follow only their own interests and overlook this responsibility. The present research illuminates how a previously adopted cognitive focus guides perceived responsibility when a person receives high (vs. low) power. In three experiments, adopting a cognitive focus on another person (vs. on the self or taking over another person's perspective) promoted perceived responsibility among individuals receiving high (but not low) power in a subsequent context. This effect was specific for perceived responsibility - a cognitive focus on another person did not change the perceived opportunity to pursue goals or the perceived relationship to an interaction partner (e.g., interpersonal closeness). While prior research examined how social values (i.e., chronically caring about others) guide responsibility among those holding power, the current findings highlight that mere cognitive processes (i.e., situationally focusing attention on others) alter perceived responsibility among those just about to receive power.
