In the present study, the in-group bias or in-group derogation among Mainland Chinese was investigated through a rating task and a recognition test. In two experiments,participants from two universities with similar ranks rated novel faces or names and then had a recognition test. Half of the faces or names were labeled as participants' own university and the other half were labeled as their counterpart. Results showed that, for either faces or names, rating scores for out-group members were consistently higher than those for in-group members, whereas the recognition accuracy showed just the opposite. These results indicated that the attitude and memory for group-relevant information might be dissociated among Mainland Chinese.
在本研究中,通过评级任务和识别测试,调查了中国大陆群体内偏见或群体贬低现象。在两项实验中,来自两所排名相近的大学的参与者对新面孔或新名字进行了评价,然后进行了识别测试。一半的面孔或名字被标记为参与者自己的大学,另一半被标记为他们的对手。结果表明,无论是面孔还是名字,对外群体成员的评价分数始终高于内群体成员,而识别准确率则恰恰相反。这些结果表明,中国大陆群体相关信息的态度和记忆可能是分离的。
