要防止重大、交叉性社会问题的负面影响，取决于个人的关切和采取行动的意愿。这项研究探讨了2020年秋季气候变化，种族不公正和COVID-19背景下的社会比较。在美国大学样本（n= 288）的参与者，报告个人的关注和行动水平，并估计同行的关注和行动对这三个问题。参与者估计，他们比同行更关心这三个问题，并在COVID-19和气候变化方面采取了比同行更多的行动。报告个人关注程度较高的参与者也估计他们比同龄人采取了更多的行动（相对于报告关注程度较低的参与者）。探索性分析发现，对社会问题的个人控制感与对种族不公正和气候变化的更多关注和行动有关，但与COVID-19无关。这表明，特定问题的特征，包括感知的可控性，可能会驱使人们以不同的方式评估他们对不同社会问题的体验。
Preventing the negative impacts of major, intersectional social issues hinges on personal concern and willingness to take action. This research examines social comparison in the context of climate change, racial injustice, and COVID‐19 during Fall 2020. Participants in a U.S. university sample (n= 288), reported personal levels of concern and action and estimated peers' concern and action regarding these three issues. Participants estimated that they were more concerned than peers for all three issues and took more action than peers regarding COVID‐19 and climate change. Participants who reported higher levels of personal concern also estimated that they took greater action than peers (relative to participants who reported lower levels of concern). Exploratory analyses found that perceived personal control over social issues were associated with greater concern and action for racial injustice and climate change but not for COVID‐19. This indicates that issue‐specific features, including perceived controllability, may drive people to differently assess their experiences of distinct social issues.
