项目摘要

Conservatives and liberals in America often demonize the other side, judging each other's values to be inferior and immoral. Rather than seeking understanding of others, people often shut out, talk over, or even spew hatred at people who do not share their own perspectives. This "empathy gap" reflects a tendency for empathy to break down in situations where people are in conflict or feel different from each other. This research tests ways to reduce this empathy gap by focusing on how people understand their own empathy. Does the belief that empathy can be developed motivate people to empathize with those who have differing perspectives? By examining how people's beliefs about empathy influence their interactions with members of other groups, this project offers insights into promoting more open-minded interactive dialogue and reducing intergroup polarization. This research focuses on the concept of empathic effort, which is the willingness to invest time and cognitive energy into understanding and relating to members of a different thought group. The project uses diverse methods and nationally representative samples to examine how to foster empathic effort. The research tests (a) whether a growth mindset of empathy (the belief that one can develop empathy) and a dynamic norm of empathy (the belief that a growing number of people think interparty empathy is important) combine to promote empathic effort toward outgroup members, (b) whether empathetic effort and feelings of empathy toward an outgroup member produce less hostility toward the broader outgroup, and (c) whether receiving empathic effort from an outgroup member encourages empathic effort from the recipient and reduces the recipient's hostility toward the broader outgroup. Messages that teach a growth mindset of empathy and dynamic norm of empathic effort could be delivered broadly and across multiple intergroup contexts. As a result, the research offers insight into addressing the empathy gap between those with different perspectives and other intergroup contexts.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
美国的保守派和自由派经常妖魔化对方,认为对方的价值观低劣、不道德。人们不是寻求理解他人,而是经常把那些不同意自己观点的人拒之门外,谈论,甚至是仇恨。这种“共情差距”反映了一种共情倾向,即在人们处于冲突或感觉彼此不同的情况下,共情会崩溃。这项研究通过关注人们如何理解自己的同理心来测试减少这种同理心差距的方法。同理心可以发展的信念是否会激励人们同情那些有不同观点的人?通过研究人们对同理心的信念如何影响他们与其他群体成员的互动,该项目提供了促进更开放的互动对话和减少群体间两极分化的见解。本研究着重于共情努力的概念,即愿意投入时间和认知能量来理解和联系不同思想群体的成员。该项目使用不同的方法和全国代表性的样本来研究如何培养移情努力。该研究测试了(a)是否有一种同理心的成长心态(相信一个人可以发展同理心)和同理心的动态规范(越来越多的人认为党派间的共情很重要的信念)联合收割机结合起来促进对外群成员的共情努力,(B)对外群成员的共情努力和共情感觉是否会产生对更广泛的外群更少的敌意,以及(c)接受来自外群体成员的共情努力是否会鼓励接受者的共情努力,并减少接受者对更广泛的外群体的敌意。教导同理心的成长心态和同理心努力的动态规范的信息可以广泛地在多个群体间环境中传递。 因此,该研究为解决不同观点和其他群体间背景之间的同理心差距提供了见解。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
