人们通常认为别人比自己更不人性化。人性似乎涉及两种意义:人类独有的属性和构成基本“人性”的属性。“否认其他人独特的人类和人性属性可能会隐含地将他们分别比作动物和自动机。在本研究中,去/不去协会任务被用来评估内隐协会社会类别举例说明两种意义上的人性,代表这些感官的特质,和两种类型的非人类。一致性关联(艺术家、人与自然的特征和动物之间;商人、人类独有的特征和自动机之间)始终强于不一致性关联。明确的评级支持这些差异的关联。社会感知可能涉及两种使他人失去人性的微妙方式。
People commonly ascribe lesser humanness to others than to themselves. Two senses of humanness appear to be involved: attributes that are unique to humans and those that constitute essential "human nature." Denying uniquely human and human-nature attributes to other people may implicitly liken them to animals and automata, respectively. In the present study, the go/no-go association task was used to assess implicit associations among social categories exemplifying the two senses of humanness, traits representing these senses, and the two types of nonhumans. Congruent associations (among artists, human-nature traits, and animals; among businesspeople, uniquely human traits, and automata) were consistently stronger than incongruent associations. Explicit ratings supported these differential associations. Social perception may involve two subtle ways of dehumanizing others.
