身体状态的共享引发了模仿者和模仿者相应的概念化,这有助于喜欢。有许多研究表明模仿和喜欢之间存在关联。然而,在被模仿者被喜欢或不喜欢的情况下,模仿的联系还没有被研究过。在两项研究中,我们考察了先天喜好对模仿链接的调节作用。喜好是通过自我报告测量(研究1和2)和使用虚拟环境技术的行为测量(研究2)来衡量的。结果表明,当参与者故意模仿一个不受欢迎的人时,对那个人的喜欢并没有增加,而当参与者模仿一个喜欢的人时,对那个人的喜欢增加了。这些影响被证明是通过联系来调节的。这些研究不仅为模仿和喜爱之间的联系提供了进一步的证据,而且还证明了这种关系受到先天爱好的调节。版权所有(C)2009 John Wiley&Sons,Ltd.
The sharing of bodily states elicits in mimicker and mimickee corresponding conceptualisations, which facilitates liking. There are many studies showing the relatedness of mimicry and liking. However, the mimicry-liking link has not been investigated under conditions in which the mimickee is liked or disliked a priori. In two studies, we examined moderating effects of a priori liking on the mimicry-liking link. Liking was measured via self-report measures (Studies 1 and 2) and behavioural measures using a virtual environment technology (Study 2). Results showed that when participants intentionally mimicked a disliked person, liking for that person was not improved, whereas when participants mimicked a liked person, liking for that person increased. These effects were shown to be mediated by affiliation. These studies not only provided further evidence of a link between mimicry and liking, but also demonstrated that this relationship is moderated by a priori liking.
