Existing research has established that openness to experience can enhance dispositional awe. For the first time, the current study examines whether subjective socioeconomic status (SSES) moderates and a Zhong-Yong thinking style mediates this effect. A sample of 2,377 Chinese undergraduates (mean age 20.7, ranging from 18 to 26) was recruited. As shown in previous research, openness was found to be positively associated with dispositional awe. As predicted, the relationship was moderated by familial and school SSES. The positive correlation was significantly larger in cases of lower familial and school SSES. The mediating effect of Zhong-Yong thinking style was also supported in the relationship between openness and dispositional awe, as was the moderating effect of familial SSES; however, a suppressive effect was found for school SSES. The implications of this study are discussed herein.
现有研究已经证实，开放性经验可以增强性格敬畏感。本研究首次考察了主观社会经济地位（SSES）是否调节了这种影响，以及中庸思维方式是否在其中起到了中介作用。研究招募了 2377 名中国本科生作为样本（平均年龄为 20.7 岁，年龄范围为 18 岁至 26 岁）。正如先前的研究所示，开放性与性格敬畏感呈正相关。正如预测的那样，家庭和学校 SSES 调节了这种关系。在家庭和学校 SSES 较低的情况下，这种正相关关系显著更大。中庸思维方式在开放性和性格敬畏感之间的关系中起到了中介作用，家庭 SSES 的调节作用也得到了支持；然而，学校 SSES 的作用却是抑制性的。本文讨论了这项研究的意义。
