摘要

与同龄人相比，当一个人认为自己受到威胁的风险更小时，就会出现不切实际的乐观偏见。这种偏见已被广泛报道，其后果是显而易见的:它将一个人的健康置于危险之中。现有文献提出，自我中心主义是导致这种偏见减少的一种机制。这篇论文测试了一种新的机制，即将一个人导向他人，从而与自我中心主义联系起来。,模仿。结果显示了直接相反的效果:模仿使人更倾向于认为自己受到的威胁更小。这一结果不仅令人惊讶，而且尤其令人担忧，因为模仿可能用于医患对话，这可能适得其反，导致对医生提供的医疗建议的抵制。©2023作者。由Informa UK Limited出版，以Taylor & Francis Group的名义进行交易。

Mimicry boosts social bias: unrealistic optimism in a health prevention case

Unrealistic optimism bias appears when a person perceives oneself–in comparison to peers–as less at risk from threats. This bias has been widely reported and the consequences are clear: it puts one's health in danger. The existing body of literature proposes egocentrism as a mechanism leading to a reduction in this bias. The present paper tests a novel mechanism orienting a person toward others–thus linked with egocentrism–i.e., mimicry. Results showed directly opposing effects: mimicry induced a stronger tendency to perceive oneself as less threatened. This result is not only surprising but especially alarming since mimicry may be used in patient-doctor dialogue which may backfire, leading to resistance to medical recommendations provided by the doctor. © 2023 The Author(s).
