Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine how positive meta-stereotypes impacted cognitive performance among disadvantaged groups and the mediating effect of negative emotions. In Experiments 1 and 2, Chinese migrant children and rural college students were randomly allocated to the positive meta-stereotype, negative meta-stereotype, or a non-meta-stereotype activation group to examine positive meta-stereotypes' effect on creativity and working memory performance. Both experiments revealed that positive meta-stereotypes had a choking under-pressure effect on cognitive performance, and negative emotions may act as significant mediators between meta-stereotypes and cognitive performance. The choking under pressure effect may occur under positive meta-stereotypes, necessitating more clarification on meta-stereotypes' negative effects.

正面情绪≠正面效应:积极的元刻板印象对认知表现的影响。
本研究旨在探讨积极元刻板印象如何影响弱势群体的认知表现,以及消极情绪的中介效应。在实验1和2中,中国农民工子女和农村大学生被随机分配到积极元刻板印象、消极元刻板印象或非元刻板印象激活组,以考察积极元刻板印象对创造力和工作记忆表现的影响。这两项实验均显示,积极元刻板印象对认知表现具有压力下的窒息效应,而消极情绪可能是元刻板印象与认知表现之间的重要中介。压力下的窒息效应可能发生在积极的元刻板印象中,因此有必要进一步澄清元刻板印象的负面影响。
