Implicit self-esteem compensation and internalization of group values

内隐自尊对威胁反应的增强被定义为内隐自尊补偿。本研究表明，内隐自尊补偿是对人际威胁的反应，而不是对个人威胁的反应。此外，知觉的命令性和描述性规范的规范行为的频率的影响进行了调查。结果表明，在法定行为上，描述性规范的作用大于强制性规范，在社会合意行为上，描述性规范的作用大于强制性规范。

The enhancement of the implicit self-esteem responding to threats is defined as implicit self-esteem compensation. In the present study, it was indicated that implicit self-esteem compensation was caused in response to interpersonal threats, whereas it was not caused in response to personal threats. Also, the effects of perceived injunctive and descriptive norms on the frequency of normative behaviors were investigated. The results indicated that, on legislated behaviors, the effects of descriptive norms were greater than those of injunctive norms, and vice versa on socially desirable behaviors.
