This study aims to investigate the relationship between social dominance orientation (SDO) and subjective well-being among Chinese adolescents (N = 4246), and to examine the mediating role of prosocial behaviour in this relationship. The structural equation model's results showed that SDO was negatively associated with prosocial behaviour and subjective well-being, that prosocial behaviour was positively associated with subjective well-being, and also that (low) prosocial behaviour partially mediated the negative relationship between SDO and subjective well-being. Multi-group analyses showed that the mediation model was generally similar between boys and girls, but that the negative relationship between SDO and prosocial behaviour was somewhat stronger among girls than boys. This study sheds light on how SDO is associated with positive outcomes among Chinese adolescents and highlights the mediating role of prosocial behaviour as an underlying mechanism between SDO and subjective well-being. Future studies are needed to further discover the role of culture values in the association between SDO and subjective well-being.
本研究旨在调查中国青少年(N = 4246)的社会支配取向(SDO)与主观幸福感之间的关系,并检验亲社会行为在这种关系中的中介作用。结构方程模型的结果表明,SDO与亲社会行为和主观幸福感呈负相关,亲社会行为与主观幸福感呈正相关,并且(低水平的)亲社会行为部分中介了SDO与主观幸福感之间的负相关关系。多组分析表明,男孩和女孩之间的中介模型总体相似,但SDO与亲社会行为之间的负相关关系在女孩中比在男孩中略强。本研究揭示了SDO如何与中国青少年的积极结果相关联,并强调了亲社会行为作为SDO与主观幸福感之间潜在机制的中介作用。未来的研究需要进一步发现文化价值观在SDO与主观幸福感关联中的作用。
