最近对自我判断的研究表明,人们对自我的评价更有可能基于与机构相关的特征,而不是与交流相关的特征。在本研究中,我们通过扩大基本维度的范围来考虑性别角色文献中典型研究的特征,从而检验了与代理相关的特征主导自我评价的假设,但这仍然应该与代理和交流相关。此外,我们对来自中国的两个样本进行了这些测试,相对于许多西方国家,中国的文化背景强调人际或交流维度。尽管使用的特征和研究的文化样本存在差异,但研究结果总体上支持机构主导自尊观点,尽管研究 2 中还有一些额外的发现。研究结果讨论了社会规范的影响以及人们在给定这些规范的情况下能够得出的关于自己的推论类型。
Recent research investigating self-judgment has shown that people are more likely to base their evaluations of self on agency-related traits than communion-related traits. In the present research, we tested the hypothesis that agency-related traits dominate self-evaluation by expanding the purview of the fundamental dimensions to consider characteristics typically studied in the gender-role literature, but that nevertheless should be related to agency and communion. Further, we carried out these tests on two samples from China, a cultural context that, relative to many Western countries, emphasizes the interpersonal or communion dimension. Despite the differences in traits used and cultural samples studied, the findings generally supported the agency dominates self-esteem perspective, albeit with some additional findings in Study 2. The findings are discussed with regard to the influence of social norms and the types of inferences people are able to draw about themselves given such norms.
