Abstract

Research on residential mobility is burgeoning; however, only a few studies have examined this topic in the context of impression formation. In Study 1, we first examined the hypothesis that high residential mobility increases sensitivity to friendliness, whereas low residential mobility increases sensitivity to hostility. In the word completion task, no effects of residential mobility were observed; however, in the impression formation task, participants with high residential mobility perceived friendly new acquaintances with higher amicability than those with low residential mobility (Studies 1a and 1c). Meanwhile, no effect was observed with the hostile new acquaintances (Study 1b). The results suggest that the effects of residential mobility, with a focus on friendliness and hostility, may be highly context dependent. Study 2 partially confirmed this idea, showing that participants with low residential mobility perceived hostile old acquaintances as less friendly than those with high residential mobility, and there was no effect of residential mobility in the case of friendly old acquaintances (Study 3). The role of residential mobility on impression formation was discussed.

不同社会背景下的居住流动性对印象形成的影响

有关居住流动性的研究正在蓬勃发展；然而，只有少数研究在印象形成的背景下对这一主题进行了研究。在研究 1 中，我们首先检验了这样一个假设：高居住流动性会增加对友好的敏感度，而低居住流动性会增加对敌意的敏感度。在单词完成任务中，我们没有观察到居住流动性的影响；然而，在印象形成任务中，居住流动性高的被试认为友好的新熟人比居住流动性低的被试更友好（研究 1a 和 1c）。同时，在敌意新熟人方面没有观察到任何影响（研究 1b）。这些结果表明，居住流动性的影响，重点是友好性和敌意性，可能在很大程度上取决于情境。研究 2 部分证实了这一观点，结果表明，与居住流动性高的参与者相比，居住流动性低的参与者认为有敌意的旧熟人不那么友好，而居住流动性对友好的旧熟人则没有影响（研究 3）。研究讨论了居住流动性对印象形成的作用。
