Abstract

Abstract. Researchers have assumed that people generally strive toward authenticity, yet have also argued that authenticity may often be impeded by social constraints. Against this backdrop, it is unclear whether people feel authentic or inauthentic more often in everyday life. To address this question, we examined the retrospective frequency of these feelings. As researchers have conceptualized authenticity and inauthenticity in various ways, we also tested for generalization of the results across different conceptualizations. Our results indicate that authenticity occurs more often than inauthenticity in everyday life. While the results largely generalized across different conceptualizations of authenticity and inauthenticity, there was nonetheless some variation. Future research, therefore, should take different conceptualizations of authenticity and inauthenticity more into account.
在日常生活中,真实比不真实更常见
摘要研究人员认为,人们通常会努力追求真实,但他们也认为,真实可能经常受到社会约束的阻碍。在这种背景下,我们不清楚人们在日常生活中更多地感到真实还是不真实。为了解决这个问题,我们检查了这些感觉的回顾频率。由于研究者以不同的方式对真实性和不真实性进行了概念化,我们也对不同概念化的结果进行了泛化测试。我们的研究结果表明,在日常生活中,真实比不真实更常见。虽然结果在很大程度上概括了真实性和不真实性的不同概念,但仍然存在一些差异。因此,未来的研究应该更多地考虑真实性和非真实性的不同概念。
