Abstract

Our self-concept is constantly faced with self-relevant information. Prevailing research suggests that information's valence plays a central role in shaping our self-views. However, the need for stability within the self-concept structure and the inherent alignment of positive feedback with the pre-existing self-views of healthy individuals might mask valence and congruence effects. In this study (N = 30, undergraduates), we orthogonalized feedback valence and self-congruence effects to examine the behavioral and electrophysiological signatures of self-relevant feedback processing and self-concept updating. We found that participants had a preference for integrating self-congruent and dismissing self-incongruent feedback, regardless of its valence. Consistently, electroencephalography results revealed that feedback congruence, but not feedback valence, is rapidly detected during early processing stages. Our findings diverge from the accepted notion that self-concept updating is based on the selective incorporation of positive information. These findings offer novel insights into self-concept dynamics, with implications for the understanding of psychopathological conditions.

超越积极偏差:自我相关反馈的处理和整合受其与预先存在的自我观点的一致性所驱动。
我们的自我概念经常面对与自我相关的信息。流行的研究表明,信息的价值在塑造我们的自我概念方面起着核心作用。然而,自我概念结构需要稳定,而且积极反馈与健康人原有的自我概念内在一致,这可能会掩盖情绪和一致性效应。在这项研究中(N = 30,本科生),我们将反馈情绪和自我一致性效应正交化,以检验自我相关反馈处理和自我概念更新的行为和电生理特征。我们发现,无论反馈的效价如何,参与者都倾向于整合与自我一致的反馈,而否定与自我不一致的反馈。与此一致的是,脑电图结果显示,在早期处理阶段,反馈的一致性(而非反馈的价值)会被迅速检测到。我们的研究结果与公认的自我概念更新是基于对积极信息的选择性吸收的观点不同。这些发现为自我概念的动态变化提供了新的视角,对理解精神病理学状况具有重要意义。
