The Higher Vulnerability in the Weness Mode of Relationship
Abstract
This study verified whether self-esteem will be damaged more in the weness mode of the relationship than in the mode of individuality if people receive inconsiderate behavior and negative comments from their partners. In order to do this, the Implicit Association Test was created to evaluate towards oneself and another person. In Experiment 1, we examined whether the implicit attitude towards others has changed after priming weness and individuality. It was found that the interpersonal distance was reduced in the weness primed condition but was marginally increased in the individuality primed condition. The interaction effect between priming conditions and factor of repeated measure was significant. After activating weness and individuality relationship by priming, Experiment 2 detected changes in implicit self-esteem and interpersonal distance after participants were treated one of three different ways (including unequal allocation of reward, negative comments, and control condition). After the unequal allocation, participants showed a significant drop of self-esteem and a marginal increase of the interpersonal distance in the weness primed condition, but no changes were detected in the individuality primed condition. Meanwhile, after the negative comments, self-esteem was slightly increased and the interpersonal distance was greatly increased in the weness primed condition, but neither of them changed in the individuality primed condition. These results show that, in the weness mode of the relationship, participants were sensitive to their partners' negative comments and inconsiderate behaviors and it can possibly hurt their self-esteem and increase the interpersonal distance. On the other hand, in the mode of individuality, self-esteem and the interpersonal distance would not be greatly affected even if people received negative comments or inconsiderate behaviors. This study acquires significance because it verified that self-esteem can be influenced by the level of expectation of receiving consideration from others.
