自尊水平与自尊稳定性的关系:完美主义的中介作用

Research On the Relationship Between Stability and Level of Self-esteem:The Mediating Role of Perfectionism

采用中介性调节分析方法,探讨了青少年外显自尊、内隐自尊、完美主义和自尊稳定性的关系。研究发现:外显自尊通过在乎缺点这一中介变量影响着自尊稳定性,外显自尊与自尊稳定性之间的关系不存在追求高标准的中介作用;内隐自尊调节着外显自尊和在乎缺点、自尊稳定性的关系,在低外显自尊者中,内隐自尊低者倾向于在乎自己的错误,表现出较高的自尊不稳定性;外显自尊通过在乎缺点影响自尊稳定性的间接效应在低内隐自尊者中更为明显。进一步的研究应考虑内隐自尊稳定性在自尊研究中的作用。

The present study argued that perfectionism plays an important role in self-esteem research and proposed a ＂mediated moderation＂ model to systematically depict the relationship of explicit self-esteem, implicit self-esteem and stability of self-esteem. The results showed that explicit self-esteem influenced the stability of self-esteem by the mediation of concern over mistakes,but not by striving for higher standards. It was suggested that implicit self-esteem serves as a moderator between explicit self-esteem and concern over mistakes, explicit self-esteem and the stability of self-esteem. People with low explicit self-esteem and low implicit self-esteem will give more concern over their mistakes, and are also more prone to show instable self-esteem. Moreover, the mediation effects of concern over mistakes on the relationship of explicit self-esteem and the stability of self-esteem are more pronounced when implicit self-esteem is low. Thus, future research should emphasize the role of stability of implicit self-esteem in selfesteem research.
