System-justifying beliefs and mental health: The palliative function and an extension
摘要: 系统合理信念是指个体对社会系统公正性与合理性的感知。理论与研究表明,系统合理信念具有防御威胁的缓和作用。它通过缓解意识形态失调、补偿个人控制感缺失以及否认或淡化威胁这3类心理机制维护心理健康,并受到情境、个体与时间边界的影响。然而,心理防御的解释忽视了系统合理信念通过应对威胁的路径以维护心理健康。未来研究应进一步检验与发展防御应对整合模型,重视缓和作用的消极后果,并完善相关测量和拓展研究领域。
Abstract: System-justifying belief pertains to perceiving the fairness and legitimacy of the existing social system. It fulfills a palliative function in safeguarding mental health through three psychological mechanisms: alleviating ideological dissonance, compensating for personal control, and denying or minimizing threats. The efficiency of these mechanisms is also shaped by contextual, individual, and temporal factors. Nevertheless, the psychological defense viewpoint overlooks the potential role of system-justifying beliefs in fostering a coping approach to preserve mental health. Future research should further validate and refine the defense-coping model, focus more on the adverse effects of the palliative function, enhance the measurement tools, and expand the breadth of inquiry.
