Abstract

The current study analyzed the effect of simple-categorization dominance on the evaluation of crossed-categorization target from the perspective of observer (other) and actor (self). With a focus on the young–poor target, in Study 1 and Study 2, participants were assigned to observer or actor perspective and were randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups: age simple-categorization dominant, wealth simple-categorization dominant, and a control group. Study 1 demonstrated that in the observer perspective group, the evaluation of the competence of the young–poor target in the wealth simple-categorization dominant group was higher than that in the age simple-categorization dominant group. In the actor perspective group, the self-evaluation of the competence in the wealth simple-categorization dominant group was lower than in the age simple-categorization dominant group. Study 2 showed that simple-categorization dominance was not associated with the evaluation of the young–poor target. These results have implications for understanding the evaluation of the crossed-categorization target.

摘要

当前的研究从观察者（其他）和演员（自身）的角度分析了简单分类优势对交叉分类目标评估的影响。在研究1和研究2中，重点关注年轻人和年轻人的目标，将参与者分配给观察者或演员的观点，并随机分配给以下三个实验组之一：年龄简单分类主导，财富简单分类主导和控制组。研究1表明，在观察者视角组中，财富简单归类主导者对年轻贫困者能力的评价高于年龄简单归类主导者。在演员视角组中，财富简单归类主导者的能力自我评价低于年龄简单归类主导者。研究2表明，简单分类的优势与年轻贫困目标的评估无关。这些结果对理解交叉分类目标的评估具有启示意义。
