这篇文章的重点是个人错误地认为他们的信仰,感知和感受与同龄人不同的情况。这种现象被称为多元无知,对自我产生了许多重要的后果(例如,对偏差的错觉)和对集体的错觉(例如,不受欢迎的社会规范的延续)。它还说明了自我和集体相互影响的几种重要方式。作者提出,多元无知的根源在于集体对不同动机的相对力量的误解。具体来说,当广泛分享但错误的人类动机社会表征导致人们将指导他们行为的动机视为不会对他人行为产生类似影响的动机时,就会发生这种情况。
This article focuses on the circumstances in which individuals mistakenly assume that their beliefs, perceptions, and feelings differ from those of their peers. Pluralistic ignorance, as this phenomenon is called, yields numerous significant consequences for the self (eg., illusory feelings of deviance) and for the collective (eg., the perpetuation of unpopular social norms). It also illustrates several important ways in which the self and the collective influence each other. The authors propose that pluralistic ignorance has its roots in collectively shared misconceptions about the relative power of different motives. Specifically, it occurs when widely shared but erroneous social representations of human motivation lead people to view the motive guiding their behavior as one that would not exert a comparable influence on the behavior of others.
