人们不仅用社会比较来评价自己的能力，还进行维度比较，比较自己在不同领域的成就。维度比较的过程对特定主体的自我概念产生对比效果：向下的维度比较导致个体内较好的领域中较高的自我概念，而向上的维度比较导致个体内较弱的领域中较低的自我概念。进行了两次实地研究和一次实验研究，以研究向下或向上维度比较的效果是否更强。在研究 I（N = 319）中，向下维度比较被证明比向上维度比较更强。在研究 2（N = 1349）中，阅读测试分数以及作为成绩指标的成绩也发现了相同的模式。在研究 3（N = 81）中，作者发现，在实验环境中，向下比较对自我感知能力和对测试结果的满意度的影响大于向上比较的影响。
People not only use social comparisons to evaluate their abilities, they also engage in dimensional comparisons, comparing their own achievement in different domains. Processes of dimensional comparison have contrasting effects on subject-specific self-concepts: downward dimensional comparisons result in higher self-concept in the intraindividually better domain, whereas upward dimensional comparisons result in lower self-concept in the intraindividually weaker domain. Two field studies and I experimental study were conducted to investigate whether the effects of downward or upward dimensional comparisons are stronger. In Study I (N = 319), downward dimensional comparisons proved to be stronger than upward dimensional comparisons. In Study 2 (N = 1349), the same pattern was found with reading test scores as well as grades as achievement indicators. In Study 3 (N = 81), the authors found larger effects for downward than for upward comparisons in both self-perceived competence and satisfaction with test outcomes in an experimental setting.
