进行了两项研究来探讨饮食行为可以在印象管理中发挥作用的概念。在实验 1 中,男性和女性受试者在有吸引力的男性或女性同伴在场的情况下进餐。在异性(与同性)伴侣在场的情况下,男性和女性受试者的食量都会减少。实验 2 是一项问卷调查研究,旨在通过了解在涉及饮食的人际情境中哪些社会动机相关以及饮食量如何满足这些社会动机,从而阐明实验 1 的结果。结果表明,以符合社会要求的方式行事可以解释女性的饮食行为,而对于雌性来说,符合社会要求和表现得女性化都可能影响食量。有人建议,印象管理理论的概念方法有助于解释这些研究的结果,并有助于理解我们文化中女性的“瘦身动力”。
Two studies were conducted to explore the notion that eating behavior can serve a role in impression management. In Experiment 1, male and female subjects ate a meal in the presence of an attractive male or female confederate. Both male and female subjects ate less in the presence of a partner of the opposite (vs. same) sex. Experiment 2 was a questionnaire study designed to clarify the results of Experiment 1 by learning what social motives are relevant in an interpersonal situation involving eating and how amount eaten serves each of these social motives. The results indicated that behaving in a socially desirable manner could account for the eating behavior of mlaes while for females both being socially desirable and appearing feminine could have affected amount eaten. It was suggested that the conceptual approach of impression management theory can be useful in interpreting the results of these studies as well as understanding the "drive for thinness" found in females in our culture.
