关于目标对社会歧视的情感反应的研究还没有同时解决自我和他人导向的愤怒。四项研究验证了这一假设,即负面反馈的感知原因会调节社会认同对自我导向愤怒的影响。在研究1和2中,当负面反馈归因于社会歧视时,高水平的社会认同会导致自我导向的愤怒减少,但当它归因于其他外部原因或内部原因时则不会。在研究3中,交叉滞后设计表明,当负反馈归因于社会歧视时,较高的认同感会导致较少的自我导向愤怒,而不是相反。这种效应在使用情景(研究1-3)和使用个人经历的回忆来操纵归因(研究4)时被发现。这些结果表明,社会歧视,社会认同保护自我,并没有增加个人的脆弱性。
Research on targets' affective reactions to social discrimination has not yet addressed self- and other-directed anger at the same time. Four studies tested the hypothesis that the perceived cause of negative feedback moderates the impact of social identification on self-directed anger. In Studies 1 and 2, high levels of social identification led to less self-directed anger when negative feedback was attributed to social discrimination but not when it was attributed either to other external causes or internally. In Study 3, a cross-lagged design showed that higher identification led to less self-directed anger when negative feedback was attributed to social discrimination but not the other way around. This effect was found using scenarios (Studies 1-3) and also when using the recollection of personal experiences to manipulate attribution (Study 4). These results indicate that following social discrimination, social identification protects the self and does not increase individual vulnerability.
