背景:社会比较是人类生活的必然方面,往往导致个人相对剥夺,其中,当个人认为自己与他人相比处于劣势时,他们会感到不公平对待。早期的研究发现了一种与个人相对剥夺有关的“平躺”现象,缺乏自我完善的动力。这项研究的目的是调查这种模式是否适合促进健康的生活方式领域,因为促进健康是由自我完善的动机驱动的。
方法:在中国进行的三项研究中,一个研究不足的非西方社会,我们利用不同的测量和样本,调查了个人相对剥夺和促进健康的生活方式之间的关联.
结果:来自研究1(N=12,465)的研究结果表明,个人相对剥夺与健康促进行为之间存在负相关关系。这种影响在老年人中尤为突出(研究2,N=11,378)。研究3(N=234)间接探索了以下可能性:在经历个人相对剥夺时,对健康目标的优先级降低解释了对健康促进行为的采纳减少。
结论:首先,所有促进健康的生活方式都是自我报告的。第二,没有直接研究珠三角与促进健康的生活方式之间的机制.
结论:总体而言,这项研究证实了物理“平躺”现象,强调个人相对剥夺会导致不健康的饮食和缺乏身体活动。此外,我们的研究结果还表明,相对于其他生活目标,健康目标的重要性较低可能是造成这一现象的根本原因。
BACKGROUND: Social comparison is an inevitable aspect of human life, often leading to personal relative deprivation, wherein individuals experience a sense of unfair treatment when they perceive themselves as being at a disadvantage in comparison to others. Earlier research has observed a phenomenon called \"lying flat\" associated with personal relative deprivation, characterized by a lack of motivation for self-improvement. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether this pattern is suitable for the domains of health-promoting lifestyles given that health-promoting is driven by self-improvement motivation.
METHODS: In three studies conducted in China, an understudied non-Western society, we investigated the association between personal relative deprivation and health-promoting lifestyles by utilizing diverse measures and samples.
RESULTS: Findings from Study 1 (N = 12,465) indicated a negative relationship between personal relative deprivation and health-promoting behavior. This effect was particularly prominent among older individuals (Study 2, N = 11,378). Study 3 (N = 234) indirectly explored the possibility that a decreased priority given to health goals explains the reduced adoption of health-promoting behaviors when experiencing personal relative deprivation.
CONCLUSIONS: First, all health-promoting lifestyles are self-reported. Second, the mechanism between PRD and health-promoting lifestyles was not directly examined.
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, this research confirms the physical \"lying flat\" phenomenon, highlighting that personal relative deprivation contributes to unhealthy diets and physical inactivity. Moreover, our findings also suggest that the lower significance placed on health goals relative to other life goals may serve as an underlying reason for this phenomenon.
