不同文化中的谚语将负债描述为负担或身体负担。据我们所知，很少有研究探讨债务和负担之间的联系。在目前的工作中，我们进行了五项研究来检验这一假设，即债务会导致对环境的感知判断，就像身体负担一样，更加令人生畏和极端。在研究1-3中，我们发现，与控制条件相比，债务条件下的人扔得更远，估计的距离更大，估计的山丘更陡峭。在研究4中，我们发现有学生贷款债务的参与者比没有债务的参与者对他们的主观权重的评价更高。在研究5中，我们复制了研究3的结果，我们使用开放科学框架进行了预注册。这些研究结果提供了债务和身体负担之间联系的第一个证据，并表明债务对人们的影响与身体负担相似。
Proverbs in different cultures describe being indebted as burdensome or a physical strain. To our knowledge, little research has examined the link between debt and burden. In the present work, we conducted five studies to examine the hypothesis that debt would lead to perceptual judgments of the environment as more forbidding and extreme in much the same manner as a physical burden. In Studies 1–3, we found that compared with the control condition, people in the debt condition threw beanbags farther, estimated the distance to be greater, and estimated the hills to be steeper. In study 4 we found that participants with student loan debt rated their subjective weight as heavier than participants without debt. In Study 5, we replicated the results of Study 3, which we pre-registered using the Open Science Framework. These findings provided the first evidence of the association between debt and physical burden and indicated that debts affect people similarly to physical burdens.
