社会认知基本维度中文形容词词库的建立

The Establishment of a Chinese Adjective Word System for Fundamental Dimensions of Social Cognition

为建立标准化社会认知基本维度中文形容词词库,以49名大学生为对象对300个备选词语在熟悉度、褒贬度、温暖性和能动性维度上进行评定,最终获得160个词语,其中积极温暖性词汇、消极温暖性词汇、积极能动性词汇和消极能动性词汇各40个.温暖性词汇与能动性词汇在温暖性和能动性含义上差异具有统计学意义;两类词在笔画、频级、熟悉度和褒贬度上匹配较好.熟悉度与褒贬度、能动性和温暖性呈正相关;词语的褒贬度与温暖性、能动性呈正相关,词语的温暖性和能动性相关不具有统计学意义.

Researches on social judgment have organized person descriptive terms into two fundamental dimensions： warmth and competence. The purpose of the current research was to establish a standardized Chinese adjective word system, which can be applied to varied researches of fundamental dimensions. Forty-nine participants were asked to rate 300 words on familiarity, valence, competence and warmth. A total of 160 words, 40 for each category, were kept according to their meanings and valences. There were significant differences between competent words and warm words in their rated competence and warmth, while competent and warm words had no difference in their strokes, frequency rank, familiarity and valence. Across the four categories, positive warm and positive competent words did not differ in strokes, frequency rank, familiarity and valence as well as negative warm and negative competent words, but positive words did differ in valence from negative words. Furthermore, the correlation between competence and warmth was not significant. There was a positive correlation, in general, between familiarity and valence and between competence and warmth. Moreover, when considering the positive or negative words independently, valence had a positive relationship with competence or warmth. The word-set provides a standardized adjective word system of the two fundamental content dimensions and meets the needs of researchers involved in various research areas, including cognitive neuroscience with its standards on stimulus selection.
