While recessions are a regular feature of modern economic life, researchers have only recently begun to explore their psychological implications. This review examines evidence that recessions are linked to changes in how people regard themselves and others. Specifically, it reviews work suggesting that recessions are associated with declines in individualism and increases in interdependence. It also reviews evidence indicating that economic turmoil is associated with greater racial animosity. Finally, it considers some psychological processes underlying these effects.
尽管经济衰退是现代经济生活的一个常见特征,但研究人员直到最近才开始探索其心理影响。本文回顾了一些证据,表明经济衰退与人们看待自己和他人的方式的变化有关。具体来说,它回顾了一些研究工作,这些研究表明经济衰退与个人主义的下降和相互依存的增加有关。它还回顾了一些证据,表明经济动荡与更大的种族敌意有关。最后,它考虑了这些影响背后的一些心理过程。
