自从自尊的概念被提出以来,自尊研究就一直受到心理学家们的重视,成为心理学研究的一个重要领域。根据对以往研究的梳理、分析与总结,发现自尊研究范式的发展不断丰富着自尊的内涵。自尊研究的范式主要由早期测量阶段发展到中期行为实验研究阶段,再到认知实验研究阶段,使得自尊的研究从外显自尊转向内隐自尊、自尊的纯理论研究转向应用研究、自尊的行为研究转向神经机制研究。
Since the concept of self-esteem has been proposed, studies of self-esteem have remained active among psychologists, and become an important area of psychology. Based on a review of the literature of self-esteem studies, we found that the connotation of self-esteem can be continuously enriched through the development of self-esteem research paradigms. Self-esteem research paradigms shifted mainly from early stage to middle behavior measurement and experimental research to the cognitive experimental research stage. This contributed to the change of focus from explicit self-esteem to implicit self-esteem, from purely theoretical research to application research, and from behavior research to neural mechanisms of self-esteem.
