Three studies tested the reliability and validity of a Japanese version of the scale that measures compassionate goals to support others’ well-being and self-image goals to construct and defend a desired self-image. Consistent with Crocker and Canevello’s (2008) original English scale, the Japanese scale had a correlated two-factor structure and showed high reliability. Study 1 found that when controlling for self-image goals, compassionate goals were associated with lower zero-sum thinking, lower validation-seeking, higher growth-seeking, and higher independent self-construal. Controlling for compassionate goals, self-image goals were associated with higher validation-seeking and higher interdependent self-construal. In Studies 2 and 3, compassionate goals were associated with self-compassion and private self-consciousness to a greater extent than self-image goals, whereas self-image goals were associated with insecure attachment and with public self-consciousness to a greater extent than compassionate goals. A promotion focus and a prevention focus were moderately associated with both goals, suggesting that compassionate and self-image goals are different from these constructs.
三项研究检验了一个日语版本量表的信效度，该量表用于测量支持他人幸福的同情目标以及构建和捍卫理想自我形象的自我形象目标。与克罗克和卡内韦洛（2008年）最初的英文量表一致，该日语量表具有相关的双因素结构且显示出高信度。研究1发现，在控制自我形象目标时，同情目标与较低的零和思维、较低的寻求认可、较高的寻求成长以及较高的独立自我建构相关。在控制同情目标时，自我形象目标与较高的寻求认可和较高的相互依存自我建构相关。在研究2和3中，同情目标与自我同情和私我意识的关联程度比自我形象目标更高，而自我形象目标与不安全依恋和公我意识的关联程度比同情目标更高。促进焦点和预防焦点与这两个目标均呈中度相关，这表明同情目标和自我形象目标与这些构念不同。
