Abstract

Three pilot studies (Ntotal = 832) revealed that people held more positive attitudes toward targets wearing protective face masks. Therefore, we examined whether knowledge of this self-presentational benefit would increase people's intentions to wear face masks. Participants (N = 997) were randomly assigned to read a passage about the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety benefit of mask-wearing, the self-presentational benefit of mask-wearing, or a combination of the latter two. Although this manipulation failed, findings revealed that preexisting beliefs about masked targets being more likable were positively associated with mask-wearing intentions, particularly among participants less concerned with disease or more politically conservative.

利用印象管理动机提高口罩的使用率。
三项试点研究(总人数 = 832 人)显示,人们对佩戴防护口罩的目标持有更积极的态度。因此,我们研究了了解这种自我展示的好处是否会提高人们佩戴口罩的意愿。参与者(N = 997)被随机分配阅读一段关于 COVID-19 大流行、戴口罩的安全益处、戴口罩的自我表现益处或后两者的组合的文章。虽然这一操作失败了,但研究结果表明,受试者对戴面具的目标更讨人喜欢的已有信念与戴面具的意愿呈正相关,尤其是对疾病不太关心或政治上比较保守的受试者。
