设计并测试了一项实验研究,以改变对身体残疾者的消极态度。进行测试前干预,包括三个条件:(a)认知干预; (b) 涉及与目标群体平等接触的认知和行为干预; (c) 无干预控制。样本由 70 名九年级学生组成。在对态度进行基线评估后,在干预后立即测量态度变化,并在干预后三个月进行随访。认知干预提供了有关身体残疾的信息,并挑战了有关身体残疾的刻板印象。行为干预包括在一组残疾运动员的指导下参加三个残奥项目。仅认知干预并没有导致对身体残疾者的态度发生重大变化。然而,无论是在干预后还是在三个月的随访中,认知行为联合干预都比不干预条件下产生了更大的态度变化。研究结果针对通过平等地位接触改变态度的模型进行了讨论。版权所有 (c) 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
An experimental study was designed and tested to change negative attitudes towards the physically disabled. A pre-post-test intervention was conducted including three conditions: (a) cognitive intervention; (b) cognitive and behavioural intervention involving equal-status contact with the target group; (c) no-intervention control. The sample consisted of 70 ninth grade students. Following baseline assessments of attitudes, attitude change was measured immediately following the intervention and at a follow-up three months post-intervention. The cognitive intervention provided information about physical disability and challenged stereotypic conceptions about the physically disabled. The behavioural intervention consisted of engaging in three paralympic disciplines under the instruction of a group of disabled athletes. The cognitive intervention alone did not result in significant changes in attitudes towards the physically disabled. However, the combined cognitive-behavioural intervention resulted in greater attitude change than the no-intervention condition, both immediately post-intervention and at a three months follow-up. The findings are discussed with regard to models of attitude change through equal-status contact. Copyright (c) 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
