| Research Abstract |
The present study focuses on three problems to examine the information processing in social interaction and the information processing of self-knowledge.
The first problem is how self is stored in memory. We examined the roles of sefl and thers in memory with respect of the differences between "remembering" and "knowing". Results indicated that there are differences between to process "person-reference" information and to process "semantic" information and there are differences between the self-reference processing and other-reference processing.
The second problem is how self-concept and self-evaluation change. First, we examined the effect of self-handicapping, a kind of defensive self-persentation, on the self-concept and the self-evaluation of the handicapper. Results showed that self-handicapping have positive effects on ability-related dimensions but negative effects on interpersonal dimensions. Secondly, we examined the common dimensions of self-perception and other-perception. Lastly, we examined the relation of social power and the restrictions of behavior on occupation.
The third problem is how affect-nodes within self-representation influence social judgments and social behavior. First, we examined the effects of who causes the affect and the effects of affect-valence on helping behavior. Results showd that "plesant" mood did not facilitate helping behavior and "anger" mood facilitated it when the cause of affect was in self. Results also showed that "sad" mood facilitated it when the cause of affect was in others. Secondly, we examined the effects of self-eficacy, mediated by anxiety and a feeling of control, on learning behavior.
