We examined if perceiving oneself as burdensome, due to performing poorly in a group, can lead to feelings associated with ostracism (being excluded and ignored), without actually being ostracized. Participants completed a typing game (Study 1) or solved Remote Associates Test (Study 2) items where they performed worse, equal, or better than the group. To isolate the influence of burdensomeness, participants were consistently selected by computerized agents to play. In each study, worse performers experienced greater perceptions of being burdensome, less basic need satisfaction, increased negative mood, and greater anticipation of being excluded from a future group task compared to equal or better performers. Additionally, despite reporting being included, poor performers experienced social pain. These results suggest that although feeling burdensome can lead to outcomes related to ostracism, feeling burdensome is a distinct experience. Consequently, feeling burdensome may be one of many aversive social experiences leading to decreased social well-being.

“我讨厌成为负担!”:由于个人表现不佳而给团队带来负担,因此体验与排斥相关的感觉

我们研究了由于在团队中表现不佳而将自己视为负担,是否会导致与排斥相关的感觉(被排斥和忽视),而实际上并未被排斥。参与者完成打字游戏(研究 1)或解决远程关联测试(研究 2)项目,他们的表现比小组差、相等或更好。为了隔离繁重的影响,参与者始终由计算机代理选择进行游戏。在每项研究中,与表现相同或表现更好的人相比,表现较差的人都经历了更大的负担,更少的基本需求满足感,更多的消极情绪,以及更大的预期被排除在未来的小组任务之外。此外,尽管报告被包括在内,但表现不佳的人会经历社会痛苦。这些结果表明,虽然感觉负担重会导致与排斥相关的结果,但感觉负担重是一种独特的体验。因此,感觉负担很重可能是导致社会幸福感下降的许多令人厌恶的社交体验之一。
