摘要

促进对后代的亲社会行为对于应对气候变化和自然资源枯竭等社会挑战至关重要。在此,我们从社会困境的角度出发,在四个预先登记的在线实验中预测并促进面向未来的亲社会行为(总人数 = 2407)。将时间偏好研究与社会偏好研究相结合,我们发现:(i) 个人愿意为未来的受益人做出自我代价高昂的贡献,而无需个人投资回报;(ii) 普遍的亲社会偏好能最有力地预测这种面向未来的亲社会行为;(iii) 如果未来的受益人与其社会偏好一致,即未来的受益人属于同群体,那么具有弱或强偏狭偏好的个人也会被激励做出面向未来的亲社会行为。最小群体(研究 2-3)和现实世界群体(研究 4)都是如此。我们的研究结果表明,旨在促进人们以未来为导向的亲社会性的政策,可以通过根据人们未来亲社会性的受益人量身定制而变得更加有效。

Promoting prosociality toward future generations by tailoring to group-based social preferences

Promoting prosocial behavior toward future generations is crucial to combat societal challenges such as climate change and the depletion of natural resources. Here, we invoke a social dilemma lens to predict and promote future-oriented prosociality in four preregistered online experiments (total N = 2407). Integrating research on temporal preferences with research on social preferences, we show that (i) individuals are willing to make self-costly contributions to future beneficiaries without personal return on investment; (ii) universally prosocial preferences predict such future-oriented prosociality most strongly, and (iii) individuals with weakly or strongly parochial preferences can also be motivated toward future-oriented prosociality if the future beneficiary of their contributions is aligned with their social preferences, i.e., when the future beneficiary is part of an in-group. This is true for both minimal groups (Studies 2–3) and real-world groups (Study 4). Our findings suggest that policies aimed at promoting people's future-oriented prosociality could be made more effective by tailoring to the beneficiary of their prosociality in the future.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Environmental Psychology is the premier journal in the field, serving individuals in a wide range of disciplines who have an interest in the scientific study of the transactions and interrelationships between people and their surroundings (including built, social, natural and virtual environments, the use and abuse of nature and natural resources, and sustainability-related behavior). The journal publishes internationally contributed empirical studies and reviews of research on these topics that advance new insights. As an important forum for the field, the journal publishes some of the most influential papers in the discipline that reflect the scientific development of environmental psychology. Contributions on theoretical, methodological, and practical aspects of all human-environment interactions are welcome, along with innovative or interdisciplinary approaches that have a psychological emphasis. Research areas include: •Psychological and behavioral aspects of people and nature •Cognitive mapping, spatial cognition and wayfinding •Ecological consequences of human actions •Theories of place, place attachment, and place identity •Environmental risks and hazards: perception, behavior, and management •Perception and evaluation of buildings and natural landscapes •Effects of physical and natural settings on human cognition and health •Theories of proenvironmental behavior, norms, attitudes, and personality •Psychology of sustainability and climate change •Psychological aspects of resource management and crises •Social use of space: crowding, privacy, territoriality, personal space •Design of, and experiences related to, the physical aspects of workplaces, schools, residences, public buildings and public space
