探讨三类重要关系他人在两类负向道德事件中对农民工脸面共享感受的影响。采用基于情境故事法的纸笔实验。使用2(家庭伦理,消极义务)×3(父-子/女关系,同乡关系,工友关系)被试间设计,共6组被试,每组有效被试分别为299、296、297、296、298、292,共计1778名。结果,在关系他人违反家庭伦理时,个体只和家庭内成员产生脸面共享,对于家庭外成员则不产生脸面共享;当关系他人违反消极义务时,个体则会因关系远近和不同关系他人产生不同程度的脸面共享。结论,当关系他人违反家庭伦理或消极义务时,农民工均体验到不同程度的脸面共享感受,其脸面共享的程度随关系远近有显著差异。
"Face" is a traditional Chinese concept, and scholars have called for examination of this concept. Face-sharing is one of the derivative concepts generated by such research. Face-sharing is a phenomenon when a significant other such as father or friend violates a moral rule, an individual may feel the loss of his / her own face. Face-sharing is a very common phenomenon among Chinese people. In Confucian culture, family ethics and negative obligations are two types of moral rules that an individual is obliged to abide by. If an individual violates these types of moral rules, not only may he / she experience an intense feeling of losing face, others related to him / her may also share the feeling of losing their own face. Farmers in China are more inclined to hold traditional Chinese social values. They are more concerned with losing face. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a rural migrant worker in modern China shares face with specific others involved in two particular types of negative moral events: violating family ethics or negative obligations. Six different scenarios designed by the researchers were used to measure the respondents’ face-sharing and face-losing when three different person-in-relations(father, fellow-townsman and friend) violated family ethics or negative obligations. Data(N =1,778) for this study were collected from the six scenarios with rural migrant workers from six different provinces in China. Using a 2(moral events: family ethics, negative obligations) × 3(relationships: father-child, fellow-townsman, fellow-worker) between-subject design, six different scenarios were tested by six different groups. Valid numbers of participants in each group were 299, 296, 297, 298 and 292 respectively. Each participant should read one of the six scenarios first and then answer five questions about how they felt about face-losing and face-sharing. By comparing relationships between "father-child", "fellow-townsman" and "fellow-worker", the stud
