本研究探讨了（a）个人居住流动史和自我概念之间的联系，以及（B）这种联系对社会交往中积极影响的影响。研究一表明，个人自我是更核心的自我定义的频繁搬家比nonmovers，而集体自我是更核心的自我定义nonmovers比频繁搬家。实验室和为期2周的事件抽样研究（研究2和3）的结果表明，频繁搬家者感到更快乐时，互动伙伴准确地感知他们的个人自我，而nonmovers感到更快乐时，合作伙伴准确地感知他们的集体自我。这些发现提供了第一个直接证据，证明个人的居住流动史与自我的重要个体差异和社会交往中的积极影响有关。
The present research examined (a) the link between personal history of residential mobility and the self-concept and (b) the implications of such a link for positive affect in social interactions. Study I showed that the personal self was more central to the self-definition of frequent movers than to that of nonmovers, whereas the collective self was more central to the self-definition of nonmovers than to that of frequent movers. Results from a laboratory and a 2-week event sampling study (Studies 2 and 3) demonstrated that frequent movers felt happier when an interaction partner accurately perceived their personal selves, whereas nonmovers felt happier when a partner accurately perceived their collective selves. These findings present the first direct evidence on how personal history of residential mobility is linked to important individual differences in the self and positive affect in social interactions.
