Open or close the door to the outgroup? Diversity beliefs moderate the impact of group boundary permeability on attitudes toward the outgroup

The present research investigated the moderating role of diversity beliefs with the aim of reconciling inconsistent findings regarding the impact of group boundary permeability on attitudes toward outgroup. In Study 1, all variables were measured with self‐report scales completed by Chinese participants. In Study 2, diversity beliefs were manipulated by randomly assigning Chinese participants to a high or low diversity belief condition. In Study 3, we replicated the moderating model with American participants. Results of all three studies indicated that diversity beliefs moderated the relationship between group boundary permeability and attitudes toward outgroup. Individuals with high diversity beliefs held more positive attitudes toward the outgroup when the group boundary was permeable (vs. impermeable). Conversely, individuals with low diversity beliefs held more negative attitudes toward the outgroup when the group boundary was permeable (vs. impermeable). These findings suggest that when the inflow of the outgroup members is inevitable, attitudes toward the outgroup may be effectively improved by increasing diversity beliefs.     

Cultural group perception enhances sense of agency in a multicultural society

Group, which involves collective actions for achieving shared goals, can be conceptually understood as an important source of agency and control. The current research investigated whether group identity salience can enhance sense of agency within the individual. Specifically, we examined whether an activated cultural group identity, through presenting different types of cultural photographs in a predictable way, would facilitate people's sense of agency by using an implicit method, namely, intentional binding effect paradigm. Experiment 1a found that an activated cultural group identity enhanced the sense of agency. Next, Experiment 1b replicated the findings by recruiting a different ethnic group in the same society. Experiment 2 explored what may affect the intensity of induced sense of agency and found that perceived representativeness of the presented cultural stimuli was positively correlated with the intensity of induced sense of agency. Finally, Experiment 3 explored whether ethnic minority and majority groups would demonstrate different intensity of agency when their cultural identity was activated. The results showed that the sense of agency induced by the mainstream cultural stimuli was greater than that induced by the foreign cultural photographs. These patterns were not different between the two ethnic groups. Taken together, these findings reflected the dynamic nature of cultural identity construction in a multicultural society.     

Optimal cue aggregation in the absence of criterion knowledge

The study of multi‐cue judgment investigates how decision makers aggregate cues to predict the value of a criterion variable. We consider a multi‐cue judgment task in which decision makers have prior knowledge of inter‐cue relationships but are ignorant of how the cues correlate with the criterion. In this setting, a naive judgment strategy prescribes weighting the cues equally. Although many participants are well described via an equal weighting scheme, we find that a substantial minority of participants make predictions consistent with a weighting scheme based on a low‐dimensional projection of the cue space that optimally takes into account inter‐cue correlations. The use of such a weighting scheme is consistent with minimizing maximal error in prediction when the cue‐criterion relationships are unknown.

英国自然神论初探

一、自然神论的经验论基础 16世纪的欧洲虽然发生了轰轰烈烈的宗教改革运动,而且文艺复兴运动也达到了最高峰,但是这两场运动的目的都只是要改变基督教的组织体制和行为方式,而不是要改变基督教的基本信仰和精神实质;它们批判的矛头都是指向教会和神职人员,而不是指向基督教本身的.     

关于自尊结构模型的理论建构

本文在已有研究基础上建构了自尊结构的“倒立金字塔”理论模型,该模型由潜在自尊、社会自尊和元自尊三个维度组成,它们之间的关系既是独立的,又相互协调、互相影响。自尊结构模型中的每一层结构的作用都是建立在它下一层结构作用的基础之上的,这既体现了信息加工系统的经验结构思想,又反映了人自尊系统的特性与机制,同时也更能表征自尊内在结构的驱动性、社会性与调节性特点。     

关于自由的一种存在论观点

一、关于自由的准备性理解自由、幸福和公正是在伦理学中必须讨论的三个基本问题 ,但是 ,自由并不是伦理学问题 ,而是伦理学的哲学基础问题 (与之不同 ,幸福和公正则是伦理学的核心问题 )。这样一个细微的区分并非没有必要 ,因为在现代社会里 ,绝大多数人都把自由看作是一种价值 ,而这是一个细微但是重要的错误。价值意味着关于各种事物的一种评价标准和生活偏好 ,人们有着不同的价值观 ,因此总能够选择或者拒绝某种价值。假如把自由看作是一种价值 ,就好像是说 ,某些人喜欢自由 ,那么他们将选择自由 ;而某些人没有对自由的价值偏好 ,那么他…     

关于小学儿童算术策略的理论及研究

关于儿童算术策略的研究一直是国内外心理学家关心的热点．围绕着儿童算术认知策略的发现、选择和运行机制,心理学家提出了表征翻译理论和竞争淡判理论．同时心理学家还提出了几种算术认知策略的理论模型。进行儿童算术认知策略研究的经典方法主要是精密时计法和口语报告法,采用的研究任务范式主要是产生式任务和验证式任务。题目结构类型、工作记忆广度和数位概念等因素影响儿童算术策略的使用。近几年,有关小学儿童算术认知策略的研究得到了长足发展。
