Abstract

Abstract: The present study aimed to explore whether just world beliefs were influenced by situational motivation via conducting a 2(just world belief state: justice verse injustice)×2(personality traits: positive verse negative)mixed design experiment. Results found that activation of just world belief transferred to different motivation of situation, which led to a significantly memory bias effect. The results revealed that just world beliefs were significantly influenced by different situational motivation.

Key words: just world beliefs, memory bias, situational motivation effect

摘要： 采用2（公正世界信念状态：公正vs不公正）×2（中奖者的个性品质：正向vs负向）被试间实验设计，以在校大学生为被试，考察公正世界信念是否具有跨情境动机效应。结果发现：预先激活的公正世界信念状态迁移到了回忆不同个性品质中奖者奖金数额这个不同情境中，影响了人们的记忆。表明公正世界信念存在跨情境动机效应。
