This investigation attempted to conceptually replicate/extend research that suggests that reminders of money can inhibit prosociality, promote self-sufficiency, and influence political beliefs. Based on these results, we hypothesized that money primes would decrease willingness to engage in sustainable actions. We also predicted that people would distribute points less prosocially and feel less socially connected when money was primed. Individuals were recruited from an undergraduate participant pool and MTurk. Meta-analytic results across the two samples revealed that money priming did not have a significant impact on willingness to act sustainably, but it did cause participants to distribute points less prosocially and report lower social connectedness than individuals in the control condition. While effects were smaller than those reported in Vohs, Mead, and Goode (2006), this study still offers support for the detrimental impact of reminders of money on interpersonal relations.
本调查试图从概念上重复/扩展相关研究，该研究表明金钱提示会抑制亲社会行为、促进自给自足并影响政治信仰。基于这些结果，我们假设金钱启动会降低参与可持续行动的意愿。我们还预测，当启动金钱概念时，人们在分配点数时的亲社会程度会降低，并且会感觉社会联系减弱。参与者从本科学生样本库和亚马逊土耳其机器人 Turk 平台招募。对两个样本的元分析结果显示，金钱启动对采取可持续行动的意愿没有显著影响，但与处于控制条件下的个体相比，它确实导致参与者分配点数时的亲社会程度降低，并报告社会联系较弱。虽然这些影响比沃斯、米德和古德（2006年）报告的要小，但本研究仍然支持金钱提示对人际关系的有害影响。
