摘要
《中国人个性测量表CPAI 2》是一套本土化发展而成的个性量表 ,涵盖包括中国文化独有以及在大多数文化共有的性格维度。该文认为结合文化特定与文化共通的研究方法能全面地反映心理现实 ,亦能加深我们对跨文化心理学的理解。该研究分析了CPAI 2常模的几个子组别 ,以展示在同一文化之内 ,性格特质的差异及连续性。性别及年龄组别间的平均分差异均符合相应的社化过程及人生发展阶段所预期的结果。而中国香港及中国不同地区在平均分的差异上则没有特定的模式。文化内及跨文化的差异展示了个人性格差异的连续性 ,以及文化特定与文化共通概念的相互关系。
The Chinese Personality Assessment Inventory (CPAI) is an indigenously developed personality measure, which covers both universal and culture specific personality dimensions. We argue that a combined emic etic approach reflects the broader psychological reality and is a useful approach to advance our understanding of psychology cross culturally. We examine subgroup differences in the CPAI 2 normative sample to illustrate variations and continuity of personality characteristics within the same culture. Sex and age differences on mean scores of the CPAI 2 scales are consistent with expected variations associated socialization and developmental stages. There is no consistent pattern of variations across Hong Kong and different geographical regions within China's Mainland. Within culture and cross cultural differences illustrate the continuity of individual differences in personality, and the dialectics of emic and etic constructs.
