Abstract When resources are scarce, people often exclude/un‐include others. However, the psychological process underlying this phenomenon is unclear. We tested mediating role of zero‐sum beliefs using vignette (Studies 1, 2, and 3) priming (Study 4) experiments. In Studies 2a, 2b ( n = 94, 206, 508, respectively), via increased beliefs, resource scarcity reduced number new employees to be hired 1), opposition accepting more foreign workers 2a), strengthened support for return 2b). Study 3...
Rodeheffer et al. (2012) showed that when people perceive resource scarcity, they are more likely to judge racially ambiguous as out-group members. In their first experiment, 71 White participants viewed a slideshow depicting either scarcity or abundance; subsequently, judged 20 biracial faces created by averaging and Black face. We conducted this experiment's preregistered conceptual replication study in Japan. Specifically, after observing abundance, East Asian produced an South The...
Abstract As a countermeasure to the increased loneliness induced by COVID‐19 pandemic‐related university closures, universities provided students with online interaction opportunities. However, whether these opportunities contributed reducing during closures remains unclear, as previous studies have produced contradictory findings. We conducted nationwide cross‐sectional survey.

Prior research suggests that higher socioeconomic status (SES) individuals help others less than lower SES due to the lack of empathic concern. This is thought be because are likely pay attention and, as a result, perceive their emotions accurately. Then, it possible when distress clear, can and show same level concern intention individuals. To test this possibility, an experiment was conducted. First, subjective participants manipulated create higher/lower conditions by comparing themselves...

However, because previous studies manipulated through taste, there exists possibility results were derived not from itself but other factors calories foods. In addition, some findings in research, though exactly effects sweetness, have been replicated,...
人は他者の希少な善行を目撃した際，感動したり，崇高さや偉大さを感じたりすることがある。こうした感情はモラル・エレベーションと呼ばれる。これまで多くの研究で，モラル・エレベーションを感じると，その後に自身も善い行動をとりやすくなることが示されている。他方，「誰がモラル・エレベーションを感じやすいか」はあまり検討されていない。本研究では，勢力感に着目し，これを検討した。モラル・エレベーションは「他者の福利を配慮する心」の知覚により喚起すること，および，勢力は他者の心の知覚を抑制することを考え合わせ，勢力感が低い個人の方がモラル・エレベーションを感じやすいと予測した。実験では168名の参加者が，勢力感の個人差を測定する尺度に回答し，その後，希少な善行（希少善行条件）あるいは同程度にポジティブな出来事（統制条件）が描かれた記事を読み，経験した感情について回答した。その結果，勢力感と条件の交互作用が有意で，予測通り，希少善行条件の方が統制条件よりモラル・エレベーションを強く経験する傾向は，勢力感が低い群において顕著であった。今後は，この現象の背後にあるメカニズムを検証することが望まれる。
