心理控制源与自我监控在预测中的交互作用

THE INTERACTION AETWEEN LOCUS OF CONTROL AND SELFMONITORING IN PREDICTING RESPONSES TO SITUATIONAL PRESSURES

Rotter的社会学习理论认为“行为是特定情境下期望和强化价值的函数”,本研究假设自我监控作为强化价值的一种测量,在预测对情境压力的反应中,与控制源存在交互作用。结果显示,在问卷描述的四种情境中,控制源x自我监控的交互作用存在(在一种情境中达到统计上的显著水平),具体表现为,控制源对低自我监控者对情境压力的反应的预测,比对高自我监控者的预测更为有效。

According to Rotter's social learning theory, which infers thatbehavior is a function of expectancy and reinforcement value in aspecific situation, self-monitoring, which we considered a measureof reinforcement value, was hypothesized in the present study tointeract with locus of control in predicting responses to situationalpressures. Results indicated that the LOC×SM interaction is func-tioning in four situations described in the questionnaire (statisti-cally significant in one situation) .Specifically,the responses of lowself-monitors are more effectively predicted from LOC scores thanthose of high self-monitors.
