中国人的生活满意度与帮助期望之间的相互影响 Reciprocal Effects between Life Satisfaction and Help Expectancy in China
——《当代心理学》2025年,第44卷,第1期—— <Current Psychology> Volume 44, Issue 1, 2025 【摘要】生活满意度与帮助预期或预测未来帮助之间的相互作用在理论和实证上是合理的,但模糊且有争议。这种合理性依赖于交换理论,该理论认为满意度和帮助是可交换的恩惠。然而,帮助预期在很大程度上是经验上未知的,它可以表示社会需求和依赖性阻碍了满意度。这场争论促使本研究使用2015年至2018年中国12,000名居民的小组调查来同时估计相互影响。结果表明,在控制居民及其配偶的先前状态后,生活满意度和帮助预期之间存在统计学上显著的相互贡献。值得注意的是,帮助预期对生活满意度的同时贡献很小,只有反向贡献的一半。同时,生活满意度和帮助预期之间的滞后相互影响不显著。因此,结果表明,提高帮助预期对提高生活满意度只会略有效果。 【关键词】生活满意度、帮助期望、互惠效应、交换理论 [Abstract] Reciprocal effects between life satisfaction and help expectancy or predicted help in the future are plausible but obscure and debatable theoretically and empirically. The plausibility rests on exchange theory regarding satisfaction and help as exchangeable favors. However, help expectancy, largely empirically uncharted, can signify social demand and dependency impeding satisfaction. This debate urges the present study to use a panel survey of 12,000 residents in China from 2015 to 2018 to estimate the reciprocal effects simultaneously. Results show statistically significant reciprocal contributions between life satisfaction and help expectancy, controlling for their prior states in the resident and his or her spouse. Notably, the concurrent contribution of help expectancy to life satisfaction was slight and only half of the reverse contribution. Meanwhile, lagged reciprocal effects between life satisfaction and help expectancy were nonsignificant. Results thus imply that promoting help expectancy would only be slightly effective in advancing life satisfaction.
