童年经历及当前压力感知对人际信任的影响

The Influence of Childhood Experience and Current Pressure Perception on Interpersonal Trust

根据生命史理论,童年经历和当前的环境生存压力是对个体的生命策略产生影响的两个主要因素。本研究认为,人际信任也是一种生命策略使然,因此,可以从上述两个因素来探究人际信任的机制。从该理论出发,研究聚焦童年经历对成年后人际信任的影响及其中介机制,并考察与童年经历相比,对当前环境压力感知影响个体人际信任的程度以及二者是否存在关联。研究结果显示：（1）童年资源缺乏的个体比童年资源充足的个体在成年后人际信任水平低;（2）童年主观高社会经济地位个体比童年主观低社会经济地位个体成年后的人际信任水平高;（3）童年不稳定的个体比童年稳定的个体在成年后更缺乏安全感,人际信任水平弱;（4）个体对当前环境的压力感知会影响个体的人际信任,感知到当前环境的压力会降低个体的人际信任,但是并没有与童年资源、童年社会经济地位和童年不稳定性产生交互作用。重视儿童早期的成长环境,加强社会稳定有利于促进社会整体人际信任水平的提高,促进社会和谐健康发展。

Based on the life-history theory,this research aims to find outhow the impact of childhood experiences have on interpersonal trust in adulthood and what the intervening mechanism is. It also examines how the effect of perception of current environment have on interpersonal trust. The results of this research suggest:( 1) C hildhood resources have a significant positive prediction on the level interpersonal trust in adulthood. People who grew up in a relatively resourcescarce environment have low er interpersonal trust than those who grew up in a resource-plentiful environment.( 2) Interpersonal trust in adulthood have significant difference based on different subjective socioeconomic status in childhood. People with higher socioeconomic status in childhood have higher interpersonal trust than those with lower socioeconomic status in childhood.( 3) Childhood instability has a significant reverse prediction on the level of interpersonal trust in adulthood,which security is the intervening mechanism. That means greater early-life unpredictability may influence interpersonal trust in adulthood through security.( 4) The perception of the current environment will affect the interpersonal trust. It will damage interpersonal trust when people feel more pressure in current environment. But the effect does not depend on people’ s childhood experiences. It is of great value to pay attention to early childhood grow th environment and keep society stable,which can be benefit for the harmonious and healthy development of society.
