灾难幸存者通常相互提供社会支持，但这种团结行为背后的社会心理过程尚未得到充分解释。我们描述了一项对1240名受2010年智利地震影响的成年人的调查，以检验两个因素的重要性：观察其他人提供社会支持和对其他幸存者的社会认同。正如预期的那样，情感社会支持与社会认同相关，而社会认同又通过共同命运的灾难暴露来预测。观察他人的支持性行为预示着既提供了情感社会支持，又提供了协调的工具性社会支持。预期支持是这些关系的关键调节因素，也可以预测集体效能。还有一种互动：社会认同缓和了观察和提供社会支持之间的关系。这些发现有助于发展对大规模紧急行为的社会认同感，并通过显示集体行动概念的相关性来增加灾害研究的价值。
Survivors of disasters commonly provide each other with social support, but the social-psychological processes behind such solidarity behaviours have not been fully explicated. We describe a survey of 1240 adults affected by the 2010 Chile earthquake to examine the importance of two factors: observing others providing social support and social identification with other survivors. As expected, emotional social support was associated with social identification, which in turn was predicted by disaster exposure through common fate. Observing others' supportive behaviour predicted both providing emotional social support and providing coordinated instrumental social support. Expected support was a key mediator of these relationships and also predicted collective efficacy. There was also an interaction: social identification moderated the relationship between observing and providing social support. These findings serve to develop the social identity account of mass emergency behaviour and add value to disaster research by showing the relevance of concepts from collective action.
