The Relationgship Between Explict And Implict Temporal Self-Appraisals And Self Consistency And Congruence Of College Students

The Sixth Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee firstly put forward the relations of harmonious society and self consistency and congruence and expound the importance of self consistency and congruence.College students are the future of our country.we should pay more attention to their self consistency and congruence.In time dimension, the ego includes past self,self and future self,whether he is self consistency and congruence or not is closely related to the consistency of his self-concept and experience in temporal self-appraisals.So the examing of the consistency and continuity of temporal self-appraisals is playing an important role on for cognitiving the harmonious state and their mental health.The research use SCCS firstly examines the characteristics of college student self consistency and congruence and compare the differences among genders,majors,grades and family residence.By using the questionnaire,we sift the subjects of high and low scores and use implicit and explicit mearsures to analysis the characteristics and differences in temporal self-appraisals of subjects with high and low self consistency and congruence in time dimension.The study reaches conclusions as follows:Firstly,College students's states of self consistency and congruence show unbalance,15.38% of college students are in poor condition in self consistency and congruence.these students are apt to get mental problems.There is no differences in the self consistency and congruence of different genders,majors,grades.but significant difference in different family residences.The self consistency and congruence degree of students from city is significantly higher than the degree of students from country.The students from country show poorer self flexibility and more stereotypical behavior.Secondly,Both explict and implicit attitude,the group of high self consistency and congruence set more positive appraisals on self and give future self a more stable and more active appraisal and more probably put negative self-appraisals on the past self,existing the trend that in time dimension from far to near, it becomes more and more positive in the future.Thirdly,on the whole,in time dimension,low self consistency and congruence groups show positive self-appraisals in explict attitude and negative self-appraisals in implicit attitude, self-appraisals is in an inconsistent state.Both in explicit and implicit attitudes for the past self low self consistency and congruence groups all show that self-concept is inconsistent with experience, and more negative and unstable.In explict attitude,low self consistency and congruence group's self-appraisals significantly lower than the high self consistency and congruence groups and show different trend with high self consistency and congruence groups in implicit attitude.
