Abstract

Five studies examined the contribution of attachment style to mortality salience effects. In Study 1, mortality salience led to more severe judgments of transgressions only among anxious-ambivalent and avoidant persons but not among secure persons. In addition, whereas anxious-ambivalent persons showed immediate and delayed increases in severity judgments, avoidant persons showed this response only after a delay period. In Study 2, anxious-ambivalent persons showed immediate and delayed increases in death-thought accessibility after death reminders. Avoidant and secure persons showed this effect only after a delay period. Study 3 revealed that worldview defense in response to mortality salience reduced death-thought accessibility only among avoidant persons. Studies 4-5 revealed that mortality salience led to an increase in the sense of symbolic immortality as well as in the desire of intimacy only among secure persons, but not among avoidant and anxious-ambivalent persons.

探索对死亡显著性反应的个体差异:依恋类型是否调节恐惧管理机制?
五项研究考察了依恋类型对死亡率显著性效应的贡献。在研究1中,死亡率显著性仅在焦虑-矛盾型和回避型人群中导致更严厉的越界判断,而在安全型人群中则没有。此外,焦虑-矛盾型的人在严重程度判断上表现出即时和延迟的增加,而回避型的人只有在延迟一段时间后才表现出这种反应。在研究2中,焦虑-矛盾的人在死亡提醒后出现了死亡思想可及性的即时和延迟增加。回避型和安全型的人只有在一段延迟期后才表现出这种效果。研究3显示,世界观防御对死亡率显著性的反应仅在回避者中降低了死亡思想的可及性。研究4-5表明,只有在安全型人群中,死亡显著性导致了象征性不朽感和亲密欲望的增加,而在回避型和焦虑-矛盾型人群中则没有。
