博物馆的参观者通常只看展览的三分之一左右的元素，而且往往只对这些元素给予有限的关注。参观者真的能从展览的这种部分使用中得到一些有价值的东西吗？这篇文章探讨了参观者如何利用展览进行“身份工作”，通过这个过程，我们构建，维持和适应我们的个人身份感，并说服其他人相信这种身份。博物馆为身份工作提供了强大的机会，但参观者不需要深入或系统地参与展览内容就能获得博物馆体验为身份工作提供的好处。
Abstract Museum visitors typically look at only about a third of the elements of an exhibition, and often give only limited attention to those. Can visitors really be getting something worthwhile from such partial usage of an exhibition? This article explores how visitors use exhibitions for “identity work,” the processes through which we construct, maintain, and adapt our sense of personal identity, and persuade other people to believe in that identity. Museums offer powerful opportunities for doing identity work, but the visitor does not need to engage with exhibition content deeply or systematically in order to gain the benefits that museum experiences offer for identity work.
