不同自尊者在赌博情境下的风险规避行为

为了考察不同自尊水平的个体在赌博情境下的风险规避行为,263名大学生被试同时完成外显Rosenberg量表、内隐联想测验和21点赌博游戏。实验结果发现,(1)随着风险的增加,所有被试都表现出风险规避;(2)在高外显自尊水平的个体中,低内隐自尊水平个体比高内隐自尊水平个体表现出更多的风险规避行为;在低内隐自尊的个体中,高外显自尊个体比低外显自尊个体表现出更多的风险规避行为。风险规避行为间接地反映出个体的防御倾向,结果提示,在风险情境中,高外显低内隐自尊个体表现出较高的自我防御倾向。

The Risk Aversion in Gamblers with Different Self-Esteem

In order to explore the risk aversion in gamblers with different selfesteem,263 college students finished the Rosenberg self-esteem scale,the implicit association test and played blackjack 140 times.The results were as follows:(1) In the blackjack game,all the participants were inclined to avert the high risk.(2) Among the high explicit self-esteem participants,people with lower implicit self-esteem were more likely to avert the risk.Among the low implicit self-esteem participants,people with higher explicit self-esteem were more likely to avert the risk.Risk aversion reflected people's ego-defense mechanism,therefore,these results displayed that people with higher explicit and lower implicit had ego-defense strategies.
