Abstract

Though efforts have been made to understand the concept of celebrity hatred, ambiguity still exists about why some people feel intense contempt, antagonism, and fear directed at celebrity culture. This study (N = 1175) aimed to reveal the indirect impact of skepticism toward celebrities on celebrity culture hate by introducing perceived celebrity deception (the perception that celebrities are deceptive) and dark triad traits of celebrities (the perception that celebrities possess dark triad personality characteristics, including Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy) as potential mediators. The study introduces the Perceived Celebrity Deception Inventory and establishes its psychometric properties. Perceived deception of celebrities and perceived deception of others were relatively high compared to that of one’s immediate family, with social media influencers being seen as the most deceptive category of celebrities. Celebrities were perceived as Machiavellian, narcissists, and psychopaths at the same time, but at dissimilar levels. Skepticism toward celebrities was weakly correlated with celebrity culture hate in the correlation analysis. This relationship was mediated by perceived celebrity deception and perceived dark triad of celebrities in the structural analysis. Results suggest that perceived celebrity deception and dark triad characteristics of celebrities tend to breed celebrity culture hate rooted from skepticism toward celebrities and may provoke “behavioral” component of celebrity culture hate (e.g., celebrity bashing).
从对名人的怀疑到名人文化仇恨:名人欺骗感知与名人黑暗人格感知的中介作用
尽管人们已经努力理解名人仇恨的概念,但对于为什么有些人对名人文化感到强烈的蔑视、对抗和恐惧,仍然存在歧义。本研究(N = 1175)旨在揭示对名人的怀疑对名人文化仇恨的间接影响,通过引入名人欺骗知觉(认为名人具有欺骗性的知觉)和名人的黑暗三位一体特征(认为名人具有马基雅维利主义、自恋和精神病等黑暗三位一体人格特征)作为潜在中介。本研究引入名人欺骗知觉量表,并建立其心理测量特性。与直系亲属相比,对名人的欺骗感知和对他人的欺骗感知相对较高,社交媒体影响者被视为最具欺骗性的名人类别。名人同时被认为是马基雅维利主义者、自恋者和精神病患者,但程度不同。在相关分析中,对名人的怀疑与名人文化厌恶呈弱相关。在结构分析中,这种关系被感知到的名人欺骗和感知到的名人黑暗特质所中介。研究结果表明,对名人的欺骗和名人的黑暗三位一体特征倾向于滋生基于对名人怀疑的名人文化仇恨,并可能引发名人文化仇恨的“行为”成分(如名人抨击)。
