公众对保护的支持通常归因于自身经济利益。然而,除了钱包焦虑之外,一种竞争性的方法认为,社会取向的态度决定了外交政策的偏好。然而,在观察性研究中,研究人员很难将社会取向的态度与钱包问题分开。本文通过一个启动实验来探讨社会取向和自我取向之间的关系。在符合预测的社会性框架,个人是不太确定的贸易和社会性的态度,以影响利己主义的看法,通过减少不确定性的钱包贸易的影响。与此相反,研究未能找到支持的假设,即个人项目的利己主义的关注社会评价。研究结果表明,未来的研究应该仔细考虑社会和利己主义的态度之间的关系时,建模和分析贸易政策偏好。
Public support for protection is typically attributed to economic self-interest. Beyond pocketbook anxieties, a competing approach, however, contends that sociotropic attitudes dictate foreign policy preferences. Researchers, however, have faced difficulty in disentangling sociotropic attitudes from pocketbook concerns in observational studies. This article addresses this problem by utilizing a priming experiment to examine the relationship between socio and egotropic attitudes. In line with the predictions of the sociotropic framework, individuals are less certain about the egotropic effects of trade and sociotropic attitudes are found to influence egotropic perceptions by reducing uncertainty about the pocketbook effects of trade. In contrast, the study fails to find support for the hypothesis that individuals project egotropic concerns onto societal evaluations. The results of the study suggest that future research should pay careful consideration to the relationship between socio and egotropic attitudes when modeling and analyzing trade-policy preferences.
