摘要
理论分析表明道家思想蕴含着丰富的有关生死的智慧,其能够在一定程度上有效缓解因死亡带来的恐惧和焦虑。但此假设并未得到来自实证研究方面的任何证据的支持。本文通过三个实证研究对此结果进行了考察。研究一发现道家人格多个维度与死亡焦虑多个维度显著相关。研究二不但复现了上述结果,还发现:与启动死亡焦虑条件相比,在未启动死亡焦虑的条件下,道家人格与死亡焦虑间相关系数显著的个数更多,绝对值更大。研究三发现:词汇性质与启动的交互作用显著。在启动死亡焦虑的条件下,道家与儒家词汇的反应时显著长于中性词汇。结果表明:道家人格具有对抗死亡焦虑的作用,但在应对特质与状态性质的死亡焦虑中,道家人格表现出了独特的时间特异性。
Although it is demonstrated by theoretical analysis that the Taoism contains great wisdoms about life and death which to a great extent can effectively alleviate the fear and anxiety concerning death, this is not supported by few evidence coming from empirical studies. This article explores this hypothesis by three empirical studies. Study 1 finds： a few dimensions of Taoism-personality are significant correlations with some dimensions of death anxiety. Study 2 repeats the result of study 1 and also finds that on the condition of non-priming death anxiety, the number of significant correlations between Taoism-personality and death anxiety are much more than the condition of priming death anxiety, and the absolute values of those correlations are bigger than that. Study 3 find： the interaction be- tween priming and vocabulary is greatly significant. On the condition of priming death anxiety, the reaction time of the Taoism vocabularies and Confucian vocabularies are significantly longer than the neutral vocabularies. In gener- al, three studies preliminary proves that Taoism-personality has the function of fighting against death anxiety and the ：function of Taoism-personality displays some time-specific.
