研究通過兩項實驗考察了權力穩定性對自我和他人人性化知覺模式的影響。實驗結果發現:(1)在權力穩定條件下,相對于低權力者,高權力者對特指他人和泛指他人均表現出顯著的"物品化"和"動物化"知覺傾向,但在權力不穩定條件下,該類知覺傾向均被消解;(2)在權力穩定條件下,相對于特指他人和泛指他人,低權力者對自我表現出"動物化"知覺傾向,但在權力不穩定條件下,該知覺傾向被消解。因此,權力的可變性有助于消除個體的去人性化傾向。

In the current study,two experiments were adopted to investigate the influence of stability of power on self-and others-humanization( including both human nature and human uniqueness towards self,specialized-others, and generalized-others). The results are as follows:( 1) when individuals hold stable power,compared with low-power ones,high-power ones show more animalistic and objectification forms of dehumanization towards specialized-and generalized-others,while those with unstable power do not exhibit any observed difference;( 2) under the stable-power condition,individuals with low power are revealed to be a larger degree of animalistic dehumanization towards self than both specialized-and generalized-others,while such an effect was diminished under the unstable-power condition. Taken together,the variability of power could help eliminate individual’s dehumanization.
