自我与他人社会价值取向对合作行为的影响及作用机制

Effects of Self-Social Value Orientation and Other’s Social Value Orientation on Cooperative Behavior and Its Underlying Mechanisms

为探讨自我与他人社会价值取向(SVO)对合作行为的影响及其作用机制,借助三重对策矩阵测量273名被试的SVO,并随机向被试呈现他人的SVO,测量其在公共物品博弈中对他人做出的合作预期及合作行为。结果发现,自我的亲社会SVO通过提高对他人的合作预期来促进合作行为,且此种模式仅存在于他人SVO未知或为亲社会时。这一结果立足于合作者之间双向互动的视角,丰富了SVO与合作行为的关系研究,指出了他人SVO及合作预期在社会互动中的重要作用,对如何促进合作行为具有指导意义。

The present study aimed to explore the influence of self-and other-social value orientation(SVO) on cooperation behavior and its psychological mechanisms. A total of 273 participants completed the triple matrix game, which was used to select Pro-Socials and Pro-Selfs. After that, participants were presented with their confederate’s SVO, and they were required to indicate their cooperative expectations towards their confederate and to make their own cooperation decisions in the public goods game. Results showed that the more pro-social the participants’ SVO was, the higher their expectations towards their confederate, and the more they chose to cooperate with others. But this pattern only existed when the SVO of their confederate was unknown or pro-social. These results shed light on the crucial role of others’ SVO and cooperative expectations in social interaction through the perspective of bidirectional interaction, which has implications for how to promote cooperative behavior.
