任何判断都涉及到被评估对象与相关规范或标准的比较，因此比较过程是人类判断的核心。然而，尽管这一突出的作用，很少有人知道的心理机制的基础比较，并产生其可变的后果。为了理解这些结果，我们必须考察在比较过程中寻求和激活了哪些目标知识。两种替代比较机制的区别。相似性，测试涉及有选择地寻找证据，表明目标与标准相似，并导致同化。相异性测试涉及选择性搜索表明目标与标准不相似的证据，并导致对比。区分这些替代机制提供了一个综合的角度比较的后果，在社会比较领域和超越。版权所有（C）2003约翰威利父子有限公司。
Any judgment involves a comparison of the evaluated target to a pertinent norm or standard, so that comparison processes lie at the core of human judgment. Despite this prominent role, however, little is known about the psychological mechanisms that underlie comparisons and produce their variable consequences. To understand these consequences, one has to examine what target knowledge is sought and activated during the comparison process. Two alternative comparison mechanisms are distinguished. Similarity, testing involves a selective search for evidence indicating that the target is similar to the standard and leads to assimilation. Dissimilarity testing involves a selective search for evidence indicating that the target is dissimilar from the standard and leads to contrast. Distinguishing between these alternative mechanisms provides an integrative perspective on comparison consequences in the realm of social comparison and beyond.
