讲座摘要：

In the current increasingly complex environment, people often hold multiple social identities. For example, an Asian American may consider him/herself as both an American as well as an Asian descendant, and a mixed-race person may simultaneously identify with both races. Whenever the different identities are simultaneously activated and give conflicting behavioral direction, people experience social identity conflict. Seven studies (N = 4854), using both measured and manipulated social identity conflict in surveys, secondary data, and controlled experiments, showed that social identity conflict shortens one’s planning horizon in future-oriented choices. This effect occurs because the conflict between one’s multiple social identities undermines the clarity in self-perception, and in turn weakens the enduring sense of self in the temporal dimension. Consequently, it anchors people’s planning horizon to a more proximate future.
