从隐性自我主义的角度来看,人们应该被与自己相似的人所吸引,因为相似的人会激活人们对自己的积极、自动的联想。四项档案研究和 3 项实验支持了这一假设。研究 1-4 表明,人们与名字或姓氏与自己相似的人结婚的可能性不成比例。研究 5-7 为隐性自我主义提供了实验支持。参与者比平时更容易被以下人所吸引:(a)任意实验代码与自己的生日号码相似的人;(b)其姓氏与自己的姓氏有相同字母的人;以及(c)其球衣号码在潜意识中与自己的名字配对的人。讨论的重点是隐性自我主义、相似性和人际吸引力的影响。
From the perspective of implicit egotism people should gravitate toward others who resemble them because similar others activate people's positive, automatic associations about themselves. Four archival studies and 3 experiments supported this hypothesis. Studies 1-4 showed that people are disproportionately likely to marry others whose first or last names resemble their own. Studies 5-7 provided experimental support for implicit egotism. Participants were more attracted than usual to people (a) whose arbitrary experimental code numbers resembled their own birthday numbers, (b) whose surnames shared letters with their own surnames, and (c) whose jersey number had been paired, subliminally, with their own names. Discussion focuses on implications for implicit egotism, similarity, and interpersonal attraction.
