大众刻板认知是影响社区基层工作者工作生活质量和工作效能的重要因素。本研究考察大学生对社区基层工作者社会认知内容和社会地位两个方面的知觉特征。并通过对比成功的和不称职的两类社区基层工作者社会认知内容,探讨了其对社区基层工作者社会地位的知觉特点的影响。结果发现,大学生按照内容与效价结合的方式对社区基层工作者进行认知评价,总体上,大学生对社区基层工作者的期望体现为能力大于温暖;大学生对社区基层工作人员的社会地位评价处于中等偏低水平,并且这种地位知觉并非源于对典型成功群体和不称职群体的了解。
<<Community workers are often viewed stereotypically by others,which exhibits negative impact on the qualities of both their work and life,as well as their work efficiency. The current study mainly focus on describing the stereotype of undergraduates towards community workers in the social status and social cognition content(competence & warmth). Based on the hypothesis that the competence and warmth can be predictor for the social status,the models connecting the social cognition content and social status were established to explore how the social status of community workers were perceived. In present study,20 terms describing competence or warmth and 8 items representing social status need to be rated. The undergraduates were asked to complete the 20 terms’ ratings of two targets who represent typical community workers(i.e. competent and incompetent workers)and accomplish the 8 items’ ratings of community workers. The results showed that:(1)the ratings of social status were in the middle and lower level;(2)the undergraduates hold relatively higher rating of competence than the warmth for the competent community workers,however,the ratings are deemed to be ambiguous according to the results of factor analysis. (3)The result of the regression analysis on the models were all statistically insignificant,indicating the perception of social status is unrelated to recognizing the competent and the incompetent community workers.
