四项研究调查了身份授予(关于谁应该被授予身份的决定)。研究表明,人们赋予表达愤怒的目标比表达悲伤的目标更多的地位。在第一项研究中,当参与者看到克林顿总统对莫妮卡·莱温斯基丑闻表达愤怒时,他们比看到他对丑闻表达悲伤时更支持他。在研究2中,这种效应在一位不知名的政治家身上得到了重复。第三项研究表明,公司的地位授予与同事对员工愤怒程度的评价有关。在最后一项研究中,参与者将更高的职位和更高的薪水分配给一位自称愤怒而不是悲伤的求职者。此外,研究2-4表明,愤怒的表达产生了表达者有能力的印象,这些印象介导了情绪表达与地位授予之间的关系。
Four studies examined status conferral (decisions about who should be granted status). The studies show that people confer more status to targets who express anger than to targets who express sadness. In the 1st study, participants supported President Clinton more when they viewed him expressing anger about the Monica Lewinsky scandal than when they saw him expressing sadness about the scandal. This effect was replicated with an unknown politician in Study 2. The 3rd study showed that status conferral in a company was correlated with peers' ratings of the workers' anger. In the final study, participants assigned a higher status position and a higher salary to a job candidate who described himself as angry as opposed to sad. Furthermore, Studies 2-4 showed that anger expressions created the impression that the expresser was competent and that these perceptions mediated the relationship between emotional expressions and status conferral.
