  • Understanding Regional Cultural-Psychological Variations and Their Sources in China

    Open Access•H Cai, L J Ji et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2026

    This research comprehensively examined regional variations in individualism and collectivism within China and the explanatory power of 20 potential factors derived from the existing cultural psychological theories, including socioecological (e.g., climates, subsistence activities, and modernization) and population (e.g., ethnicity, genetic and linguistic features) ones. Three large-scale studies were conducted. In Study 1 ( N = 18,606), we assess…

  • Understanding the Persistence of Traditional Values in Modern Society

    Open Access•Menglin He, H Cai et al.•ARTICLE•Personality and Social Psychology…•2025

    The adaptation account suggests that the persistence of some traditional values in modern society is due to their enduring adaptive utility. We tested this hypothesis by examining the change of filial piety in two Confucian societies, China and Japan. By analyzing natural language data, Study 1 found that Chinese people’s concern about and liking for filial piety have increased since 1979, with falling birth rate and rising elderly population as …

  • High social support is associated with reduced cardiac events in patients following ICD/CRT-D implantation

    Open Access•Jing Pan, Shaoshan Pang et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Psychology•2025

    Few studies exist on the impact of social support on cardiac events following implantation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy devices with defibrillators (CRT-D). This study aims to investigate the longitudinal association between social support and adverse cardiac events among ICD/CRT-D recipients during a 1-year follow-up. This hospital-based longitudinal study included 101 patients undergoing …

  • Research on the network structure and gender/age differences of psychological safety among urban residents

    Open Access•Tao Yang, H Cai et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Psychology•2025

    Researchers should fully consider gender and age factors and adopt more personalized and differentiated strategies for promoting individual psychological safety

  • New evidence on the relationship between income and subjective well-being

    Open Access•H Cai, Haiyan Liu et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2025

    The findings enrich the mediating and moderating role of psychological factors in the relationship between income and subjective well-being. From the perspective of public psychological security, it provides a reference basis for enhancing the public's subjective well-being

  • Trajectory of Nostalgia in Emerging Adulthood

    Open Access•Yuqi Wang, Tim Wildschut et al.•ARTICLE•Personality and Social Psychology…•2024

    We examined the change and stability of nostalgia in emerging adulthood. We followed 327 students through their 4 university years with six assessments. Nostalgia demonstrated moderate rank stability ( r = .25–.79). A Trait-State-Occasion model analysis indicated that the stable trait component, slowing-change trait component, and state component explained 37% to 43%, 10% to 27%, and 29% to 49% of variation in nostalgia on specific occasions, res…

  • Modelling of a Tubular Conveyor for Waste Collection and Sorting in Multi-Storey Residential Buildings

    Open Access•Nurzhan Bulatov, V Babak et al.•ARTICLE•International Society for the…•2024

    The escalation of household waste due to urbanization poses a significant challenge for waste management in multi-storey residential buildings, leading to environmental, health, and safety concerns. This study investigates the implementation of a tubular conveyor system for automated waste collection and sorting in Kazakhstan, aiming to address the inefficiencies in existing waste management practices and explore a solution that enhances operatio…

  • Does Economic Growth Raise Happiness in China? A Comprehensive Reexamination

    Open Access•H Cai, Jingqi Yuan et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2023

    Has China’s vigorous economic growth raised its citizens’ happiness? Existing studies have portrayed, if not a pessimistic picture, a complicated one. We conducted two studies to clarify this issue. In Study 1, we used data from available national surveys between 1990 and 2018 (64 samples) and demonstrated a significant quadratic U-shaped trend and a rising tendency. In Study 2, we conducted a cross-temporal meta-analysis from 2001 to 2019 (689 s…

  • Distress prospectively predicts higher nostalgia, and nostalgia prospectively predicts lower distress

    Open Access•Yuqi Wang, Constantine Sedikides et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Personality•2023

    OBJECTIVE: We were concerned with the relation between distress and nostalgia. At the state level, extensive research has established that momentary nostalgia is evoked by (experimentally manipulated) distress. However, at the trait level, the directionality of this relation is unclear. We conducted a longitudinal study to clarify the directional relation between these two constructs. METHOD: We surveyed first-year university students (N = 3167) …

  • Nature nurtures authenticity

    Ying Yang, Constantine Sedikides et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Personality and Social…•2023•Citada por: 1

    Contact with nature may benefit, not only the bodily organism, but also the psychological self. We proposed that, assuming humans' innate affinity for nature (the biophilia hypothesis), nature would be conducive to a sense of environment-self fit, which would be experienced as authenticity (being aligned with one's true self). We formulated several hypotheses: (a) nature fosters authenticity, and it does so through at least four plausible mechani…

  • Nostalgia and Satisfaction with Life

    Open Access•Yu L L Luo, Tim Wildschut et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Happiness Studies•2022

  • Self‐affirmation reduces vigilance to mortality threat

    Open Access•Jun Chen, Constantine Sedikides et al.•ARTICLE•Asian Journal Of Social Psychology•2022

    The literature has indicated that self‐affirmation attenuates defensive responding (e.g., derogation of an offensive essay’s author, accessibility of death‐related cognitions) to mortality threat. The current eye‐tracking study built on that literature to examine whether self‐affirmation influences attentional processing of mortality threat. Participants ( N = 51), after being randomly assigned to the self‐affirmation or control condition, comple…

  • Meaning in Stressful Experiences and Coping Across Cultures

    Open Access•L J Ji, Suhui Yap et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2022

    We report three studies to examine how culture may influence people’s tendency to see meaning in stressful experiences (MISE), as well as their coping responses. Using a newly developed MISE scale with established measurement invariance across both cultures, we found that Chinese participants were more likely than Euro-Canadians to see meaning in stressful experiences (Studies 1 and 2), to adopt acceptance and positive reframing coping styles (St…

  • Viewing nature scenes reduces the pain of social ostracism

    Ying Yang, Lishen Wang et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Social Psychology•2021

    In a series of four studies (Ns = 245, 135, 155, 222), we explored the effects of viewing nature scenes on promoting recovery from ostracism. We first manipulated experiences of ostracism, then randomly assigned participants to view photos of either nature, urban scenes, or neutral objects. Across all four studies, participants who viewed nature photos reported significantly lower levels of state social pain, along with significantly higher level…

  • Lay Conceptions of Modesty in China

    Open Access•Yuanyuan Shi, Aiden P Gregg et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2021

    We investigated lay conceptions of modesty in China (谦虚) using a prototype approach. First, a sample of Chinese participants spontaneously listed the characteristics of modest persons. Independent coders then edited these into 112 exemplars, and further grouped them into 34 categories (Study 1). Categories that subsumed more frequently occurring items were deemed more prototypical. Second, another sample of Chinese participants directly rated the…

  • Is implicit social cognition developmentally stable? A longitudinal study

    H Cai, Yu L L Luo et al.•ARTICLE•Developmental Psychology•2021

    To examine whether implicit social cognition is developmentally stable or variable, this study investigated three primary types of implicit social cognition (self-esteem, the gender-science stereotype, and racial attitude) across 2 years in a sample of Chinese adolescents and emerging adults (N = 608; 56% female; 15- to 27-year-olds). Rank-order stability analyses indicated that implicit self-esteem and implicit racial attitude manifested low sta…

  • Sense of home buffers threats to the self

    Open Access•Ziyan Yang, Constantine Sedikides et al.•ARTICLE•Asian Journal Of Social Psychology•2020

    We hypothesised that sense of home serves as a buffer against self‐threat. In three experiments, we induced sense of home (vs. control) and assessed its buffering function to threat. Sense of home augmented openness to stereotype threat information (Experiment 1), increased performance on a spatial rotation ability test after stereotype threat (Experiment 2), and reduced the desire for high‐status products following mortality salience (Experiment…

  • On the Etiology of Self-Enhancement and Its Association With Psychological Well-Being

    Open Access•Yu L L Luo, Constantine Sedikides et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2020

    Self-enhancement, the motive to view oneself in positive light, and its manifestations have received wide attention in behavioral sciences. The self-enhancement manifestations vary on a continuum from a subjective level (agentic narcissism, communal narcissism, narcissistic grandiosity) through an intermediate level (better-than-average judgments) to an objective level (overclaiming one’s knowledge). Prior research has established the heritabilit…

  • How Do Religiosity and National Identity Relate to Cosmopolitanism? An Empirical Study Using Representative Samples in Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist Societies

    Robert Jiqi Zhang, James H Liu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for the…•2020•Citada por: 3•Referências: 17

    Cosmopolitan Orientation’s (COS) relationship with personal religiosity, organizational religiosity, and national identity was examined in nationally representative samples from 19 societies (13 mainly Christian, 2 Muslim, and 4 societies with historically Buddhist influences, N = 8740). Multi-group structural equation models found that personal religiosity was a positive and significant predictor of global prosociality (willingness to help other…

  • Why do humans pursue higher social class? Death anxiety matters

    Wei Cai, H Cai et al.•ARTICLE•Death Studies•2020•Citada por: 1•Referências: 6

    This research examined whether death anxiety motivated individuals to pursue a higher social class. Two studies were conducted to provide supporting evidence. Study 1 ( n = 1847) showed that higher chronic death anxiety was associated with stronger motivation to pursue a higher social class. Study 2 ( n = 135) showed that situationally induced death anxiety augmented the pursuit of a higher social class and was associated with choosing lower crit…

  • The Development of Implicit Self-Esteem During Emerging Adulthood

    Open Access•Yuqi Wang, Wei Wu et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2018

    Emerging adulthood is one of the most important life stages for self and identity development. The present research tracked the development of implicit self-esteem during emerging adulthood at both the group and individual levels. We used the implicit association test to assess implicit self-esteem with the improved D score as the index. We surveyed 327 students each year from the beginning of their first year of university until their graduation…

  • Male = Science, Female = Humanities

    Open Access•H Cai, Yu L L Luo et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2016

    The gender-science stereotype of associating males, rather than females, with science is pervasive and influential. The present study challenged the common-sense assumption that it is environment that leads to the gender-science stereotype by conducting a genetically informative study. A total of 304 pairs of twins (152 monozygotic [MZ] and 152 dizygotic [DZ]) completed explicit and implicit gender-science stereotype measures twice across 2 years…

    Open Access•Young-Hee Kim, Young-Hoon Kim et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2010•Citada por: 13•Referências: 45

    The authors contend that although people in both Eastern and Western cultures are motivated to make favorable self-evaluations, the actual likelihood of expressing favorable self-evaluations in a concrete situation depends on (a) the dominant self-presentation norms in the culture, (b) how salient the norm is in the immediate situation, and (c) the availability of normatively permissible means to make favorable self-evaluations. The authors teste…

    Globalization affords greater opportunities to learn about foreign peoples than in the past. What impacts do interpersonal contact, media exposure to and knowledge about China have on the American people's China policy preferences? Two large surveys of U.S. citizens were conducted in the summers of 2008 and 2009 to explore whether knowledge about China and prejudice against the Chinese people and the Chinese government would mediate the relations…

  • Cultural Similarities in Self-Esteem Functioning

    Open Access•J D Brown, H Cai et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2009•Citada por: 8•Referências: 45

    East Asians report lower levels of self-esteem than North Americans and Western Europeans. These differences could mean that self-esteem is a culturally bounded construct, experienced differently in different cultures, or they could mean that self-esteem is a universally relevant construct whose average level is raised or lowered in different cultures. To examine these possibilities, the authors assessed self-esteem functioning in China and Ameri…

  • Self-Enhancement and Self-Protection Strategies in China

    The motive to enhance and protect positive views of the self manifests in a variety of cognitive and behavioral strategies, but its universality versus cultural specificity is debated by scholars. We sought to inform this debate by soliciting self-reports of the four principal types of self-enhancement and self-protection strategy (positivity embracement, favorable construals, self-affirming reflections, defensiveness) from a Chinese sample and c…

  • Wanting to Be Great and Better But Not Average

    What is the nature of self-evaluation motives? The relativist perspective suggests that self-evaluation motives vary culturally, with self-enhancement developing in Western culture and self-effacement and self-improvement developing in East Asian culture. The universalist perspective suggests that self-enhancement and self-improvement are basic human motives that coexist in the self-system and are prevalent across cultures. We tested the competin…

    Recent research has begun to examine the impact of cultural mixing on human psychology. We conducted four experiments to examine the influence of intrusive cultural mixing on implicit intergroup attitudes. Our results indicated that (a) intrusive cultural mixing augmented implicit prejudice toward the intruding foreign cultural group (Study 1), (b) heightened implicit prejudice partially mediated boycotting behavior provoked by intrusive cultural…

    It is widely assumed that East Asians evaluate themselves less positively than do Westerners, but this assumption lacks consistent support. In this report, the authors provide evidence that cultural differences in self-evaluations are moderated by two factors: trait importance and self-esteem. American and Chinese college students completed a self-esteem scale and then evaluated themselves on traits that varied in their cultural importance. Cultu…

Such cross-cultural differences in self-appraisal fit the stereotype of the modest East Asi…

  • Examining the Measurement Invariance between Paper-and-Pencil and Internet-Administered Tests in China

    H Cai, Hua-Jian CAI•ARTICLE•Acta Psychologica Sinica•2008

    摘要: 以生活满意度量表为例,运用实证性因素分析,考察在中国文化下网络测验和传统纸笔测验之间的测量不变性。结果显示,网络测验和纸笔测验之间存在弱不变性,即网络测验和纸笔测验有着相同的测量单位;但网络测验和纸笔测验只存在部分的强不变性和部分的严格不变性,测验实施环境对结果的影响不可忽视。该研究表明,恰当设计的网络测验是可靠的,同时还提示,当一个测验在不同情境下运用时,检验测量不变性十分必要

    摘要: 研究探讨了中国大学生对由不同途径感染的艾滋病患者的区别性反应,涉及的因变量包括对艾滋病患者的总体感受、情绪反应、责任感知、接触意愿等。结果显示:1)和主观不可控途径(输血和母婴)相比,大学生对由可控途径(性和吸毒)感染的艾滋病患者感到更多的生气、讨厌和恐惧,更少地感到同情,表现出更强的负性态度,更少的接触意愿;同时还认为由性和吸毒感染的艾滋病患者应该承担更多的责任,更应该接受强制处理;2)女性比男性表现出对艾滋病患者更低的接触意愿,但是在其它反应上,均没发现性别差异;3)中介分析显示,对由不同途径感染的艾滋病患者的不同的态度反应在一定程度上是由不同的情绪反应导致的,负性情绪会导致负性态度,同情会导致正性态度。这些结果提示,要减少对艾滋病患者的偏见和歧视等负性反应,营造一个有利于艾滋病防治的社会环境,对由不同途径感染的艾滋病患者应该有针对性地采取不同的策略,要尽可能减少负性情绪、唤起同情心

  • The Relationship between Sex-role and Subjective Well-being in China

    H Cai, Hua-Jian CAI•ARTICLE•Acta Psychologica Sinica•2008

    摘要: 在西方文化下,关于理想的性别角色类型主要存在三种观点:一致性模型、双性化模型、男性化模型。按照一致性模型,具有男性化特质的男性和具有女性化特质的女性是最为理想的;按照双性化模型,在男性化特质和女性化特质两个维度上得分都高的个体社会适应性最强而且心理最健康;按照男性化模型,男性化特质才是心理健康和社会适应的主要决定因素。研究运用大样本的网络数据,探讨在中国文化下,上述三个模型在中国的适用性,具体地,在性别角色类型和主观幸福感的关系上的适用性。结果发现:双性化模型得到支持,同时具有男性化特质和女性化特质的个体主观幸福感最高;男性化模型和一致性模型都没有得到支持。这表明在当代西方文化下的理想模型——男性化模型并不适用于中国,理想的性别角色模型具有文化特异性。这一结果不仅增进和丰富了人们对文化对心理和行为的影响的认识,还对我国目前青少年良好个性品质的塑造和培养以及心理健康教育的实践具有重要指导作用

    The motive to enhance and protect positive views of the self manifests in a variety of cognitive and behavioral strategies, but its universality versus cultural specificity is debated by scholars. We sought to inform this debate by soliciting self-reports of the four principal types of self-enhancement and self-protection strategy (positivity embracement, favorable construals, self-affirming reflections, defensiveness) from a Chinese sample and c…

    Joshua D Miller, Jessica Maples et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Personality and Social…•2015•Referências: 7

    The issue of Americans' levels of narcissism is subject to lively debate. The focus of the present research is on the perception of national character (PNC) of Americans as a group. In Study 1, American adults (N = 100) rated Americans as significantly more narcissistic than they perceived themselves and acquaintances. In Study 2, this finding was replicated with American college students (N = 322). PNC ratings of personality traits and externali…

  • Male = Science, Female = Humanities

    Open Access•H Cai, Yu L L Luo et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2016

    The gender-science stereotype of associating males, rather than females, with science is pervasive and influential. The present study challenged the common-sense assumption that it is environment that leads to the gender-science stereotype by conducting a genetically informative study. A total of 304 pairs of twins (152 monozygotic [MZ] and 152 dizygotic [DZ]) completed explicit and implicit gender-science stereotype measures twice across 2 years…

  • Nostalgia and Self-Enhancement

    Open Access•Yu L L Luo, Yunzhi Liu et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2016

    We addressed phenotypic and genetic research questions regarding nostalgia and self-enhancement. At the phenotypic level (178 university students; Study 1), we found that nostalgia was moderately associated with self-enhancement. At the genotypic level (232 twin pairs; Study 2), we found that nostalgia, self-enhancement, and their relation were largely heritable. Our findings shed light on two heavily investigated traits and open up exciting rese…

  • Understanding Exclusionary Reactions Toward a Foreign Culture

    Open Access•Yuanyuan Shi, Jing Shi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•2016•Citada por: 5•Referências: 20

    Recent research has begun to examine the impact of cultural mixing on human psychology. We conducted four experiments to examine the influence of intrusive cultural mixing on implicit intergroup attitudes. Our results indicated that (a) intrusive cultural mixing augmented implicit prejudice toward the intruding foreign cultural group (Study 1), (b) heightened implicit prejudice partially mediated boycotting behavior provoked by intrusive cultural…

  • The Development of Implicit Self-Esteem During Emerging Adulthood

    Open Access•Yuqi Wang, Wei Wu et al.•ARTICLE•Social Psychological and…•2018

    Emerging adulthood is one of the most important life stages for self and identity development. The present research tracked the development of implicit self-esteem during emerging adulthood at both the group and individual levels. We used the implicit association test to assess implicit self-esteem with the improved D score as the index. We surveyed 327 students each year from the beginning of their first year of university until their graduation…

    We conducted preregistered replications of 28 classic and contemporary published findings, with protocols that were peer reviewed in advance, to examine variation in effect magnitudes across samples and settings. Each protocol was administered to approximately half of 125 samples that comprised 15,305 participants from 36 countries and territories. Using the conventional criterion of statistical significance ( p < .05), we found that 15 (54%) of …
