信念确定性和信念重要性是自我概念投资的两种相对独立的形式。三项研究表明,确定性与认知因素(即理性或信息因素)有关,而重要性与情感因素(即情感和动机因素)更密切相关。第四项研究探讨了确定性和重要性对人们自我观的时间稳定性的影响,发现信念确定性与积极信念和消极信念的稳定性都有关,而信念重要性只与积极信念的稳定性有关。讨论了信念投资对验证-增强辩论以及自我概念的结构和测量的影响。
Belief certainty and belief importance represent 2 relatively independent forms of investment in the self-concept. Three studies suggested that whereas certainty is associated with epistemic (ie, rational or informational) factors, importance is more closely associated with emotive (ie, emotional and motivational) factors. A 4th study explored the implications of certainty and importance for the temporal stability of people's self-views and revealed that whereas belief certainty was associated with the stability of both positive and negative beliefs, belief importance was associated with the stability of positive beliefs only. The implications of belief investment for the verification–enhancement debate and for the structure and measurement of the self-concept are discussed.
