心理控制源倾向对责备与辩解的影响:进一步的证据

本研究是对Wang和Anderson研究的继续。149名大学生被试分别对成功和失败情境下的辩解以及交互负有责任情境下的责备进行了评定。结果表明,外控者与内控者相比有着较高的辩解倾向,而丑这一结果不受辩解情境(成功或失败)以及辩解对象(自己或别人)的影响。同时,在交互负有责任的情境下,外控者与内控者相比有较高责备别人的倾向,而对自己以及环境因素的责备则没有表现出差异。文中从方法学及心理动力学角度对这一结果进行了讨论。

BLAMING AND EXCUSE-MAKING AS A FUNCTION OF INTERNAL-EXTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL: FURTHER EVIDENCE

This is a further research following Wang and Anderson(1990). 149Chinese college students rated excuses under both failure and successsituations, and assigned blames to self, another person, and"no one"under joint-responsible situations. Subjects also fulfilled the RevisedRotter's I-E Scale. Results indicated that externals had higher ex-cuse-tendencies than internals in both failure and success situations.Externals also assigned more blame to another person, but no differ-ences appeared on the blame assignment to self and "no one", whencompared with internals. Results were discussed from the standpointof research methodology and the psychodynamics of everyday life.
