The Study Of Other Mental Representation Complexity Influent The Self

Self-representation is the cognition about self-knowledge. It includes two ingredients of the content and structure. Self-representation in the content emphasizes the description and appraisement of the individual. It reflects the self-related characteristic of the long-term memory stored up and relates the living conditions. It displays the specific characteristic of the scene. The constitutive self-representation is the individual how to organization the self-related content. The self-complex theory is a mainstream direction in self-representation structure research, aroused the widespread interest. The self-complexity was defined as the self-description quantity and the relationship between this self-description. The self-description quantity is the bigger and the relationship between this self-description is the less, then the self-complexity is the higher. Conversely, the few quantity and much relationship of the self-description, self-complexity is the lower. Accordingly, other representation complexity was defined as the other-description quantity and the relationship between this other-description. The other-description quantity is the bigger and the relationship between this other-description is the less, then other representation complexity is the higher. Conversely, the few quantity and much relationship of the other-description, other representation complexity is the lower. The self-dimension/other-dimension quantity as well as the overlap degree in these self-dimension is various. Thus, the self-complex/other representation complexity level of the individual is different.Including close others in the self has consequences for mental representations of both the self and meaningful others. To a certain extent, the meaningful others become part of our identity and history, essentially becoming linked to the self. Integrating the companion is the bigger, More overlap of self-concept. The researcher discovered that, ingredient of Self-representation contains close others which include the mother, lovers and friends in china. A considerable amount of research shows that Self-representation influent how perceived and evaluated others. Some research indicated that including others in the self-concept affects the mental representation of traits ascribed to them. Some research show that the self-knowledge and the intimate other knowledge affects mutually. Research discovered that self-complexity still might forecast the intimate other complexity. To the extent, others are included in one’s self-concept; There may be some degree of alignment in representation structures. The research shows that the self-complexity may be the moderating effects of stress and the psychologically healthy. A meta-analysis discovers that the relationship between the self-complexity and the degree of satisfaction is the inverse correlation. Schleicher discovered that under high pressure condition, high self-complexity would lead to less body disease. Some studies indicate that the correlation between the high self-complexity and the adjustment is not difference. The self-complexity cannot affect the mood and the aspect ability. The domestic researches indicated that, under the high accumulation pressure scene, the high latitude and the low overlaps are advantageous to buffer the pressure. In other situations, the low overlaps can raise the level of depress. Inconsistent result indicated the relations of the self-complexity and the mental health need the further research.Using Card sorting and questionnaire survey, this research discusses the relationship of the self-complexity and the complexity of other mental representation as well as the intimate other representation should influent the self-complexity and mental health. The result discovers that, the correlation of the self-complexity and the different intimate other complexity is remarkable. Controlled the common other complexity, the partial correlation of the self-complexity and the close other complexity is significant; control the close other complexity, the self-complexity and the common other complexity partial correlation is not remarkable. The result showed that the self-structure includes the close other. Though the self-structure does not overlap with the common other, it influents the common other people through close other. In other words, the structure of self contains close other, but not including the common other. The close other’s complexity influences individuals depression. The close other people complexity is higher, the individual depression is higher; through the life event, the common other people complexity indirect depression, the depression direct influent individual balance emotion. In other words, the common other people complexity is higher, the lives event to be less negatively, the individual depression level is lower, the emotion is more balanced.
