本研究考察了社会认同心理是否能在全球集体背景下激励合作的问题。我们的数据来自于一项关于多层次公共产品困境中选择行为的跨国研究，该研究的样本来自于美国、意大利、俄罗斯、阿根廷、南非和伊朗的普通人群。结果表明，对国际社会的包容性社会认同是一种有意义的心理建构，在激励超越狭隘利益的合作中起着重要作用。自我报告的对整个世界的认同预测了对全球公共利益的行为贡献，超出了对其他人可能做出贡献的预期。此外，全球社会认同在概念上不同于对全球问题的一般态度，对合作行为有独特的影响。
This research examined the question of whether the psychology of social identity can motivate cooperation in the context of a global collective. Our data came from a multinational study of choice behavior in a multilevel public-goods dilemma conducted among samples drawn from the general populations of the United States, Italy, Russia, Argentina, South Africa, and Iran. Results demonstrate that an inclusive social identification with the world community is a meaningful psychological construct that plays a role in motivating cooperation that transcends parochial interests. Self-reported identification with the world as a whole predicts behavioral contributions to a global public good beyond what is predicted from expectations about what other people are likely to contribute. Furthermore, global social identification is conceptually distinct from general attitudes about global issues, and has unique effects on cooperative behavior.
