许多心理学理论认为自我调节和身份之间存在联系,但是,直到现在,还没有提出一种机制性的解释来建议如何改善自我调节。身份-价值模型(IVM)将社会心理学的观点(即核心价值观和群体归属感等身份方面具有积极的主观价值)与决策和行为经济学的过程关注账户(即自我调节是由一系列选择属性的动态价值整合驱动的)联系起来。总之,这些想法意味着,与身份相关的目标导向行为更有可能被实施,因为它们比与身份无关的行为具有更大的主观价值。因此,一个中心假设是,增加目标行为被视为自我相关的程度的干预措施将改善自我调节。此外,基于身份的自我调节的变化,预计将介导的主观价值和其潜在的神经系统的变化。在这篇文章中,我们定义了与IVM相关的关键结构,解释了模型,描绘了它的边界条件,并描述了它如何与相关理论相适应。我们还回顾了研究文献中可能共享身份相关价值作为共同的潜在作用机制的不同结果。最后,我们讨论了有关该模型的问题,这些问题的答案可以推进自我调节的研究。
Many psychological theories suggest a link between self-regulation and identity, but, until now, a mechanistic account that suggests ways to improve self-regulation has not been put forth. The identity-value model (IVM) connects the idea from social psychology that aspects of identity such as core values and group affiliations hold positive subjective value to the process-focused account from decision making and behavioral economics that self-regulation is driven by a dynamic value integration across a range of choice attributes. Together, these ideas imply that goal-directed behaviors that are identity relevant are more likely to be enacted because they have greater subjective value than identity-irrelevant behaviors. A central hypothesis, therefore, is that interventions that increase the degree to which a target behavior is perceived as self-relevant will improve self-regulation. In addition, identity-based changes in self-regulation are expected to be mediated by changes in subjective value and its underlying neural systems. In this article we define the key constructs relevant to the IVM, explicate the model and delineate its boundary conditions, and describe how it fits with related theories. We also review disparate results in the research literature that might share identity-related value as a common underlying mechanism of action. We close by discussing questions about the model, the answers to which could advance the study of self-regulation.
