Liangshan fire,one side is difficult,eight-way support.Altruistic behavior is closely related to our lives,so it is important to understand the influencing factors of altruistic behavior.In the past,there are few studies on the common effects of psychological distance and moral identity on altruistic behavior.In this study,the general situation and present situation of the research progress on psychological distance and moral identity are summarized.On the basis of previous studies,it is necessary to combine two factors to explore the influencing factors of altruistic behavior.This study mainly involves two sub-studies,using questionnaires and situational simulation experiments,the experimental data after t-test and repeated measurement of variance analysis and other statistical processing,and so on.The differences of behavior choice tendency between specific moral identity and situational moral identity were discussed respectively.In the first study,we discuss the effects of psychological distance and moral identity on altruistic behavior,and find that psychological distance and moral identity interact with each other.This conclusion has been verified in social distance and spatial distance,but it has not been verified in time distance.The main results are as follows:in the near future,the individuals with high moral identity and those with low moral identity have significant differences in the tendency of altruistic behavior selection,and the individuals with high moral identity tend to choose altruistic behavior more than those with lower moral identity.There was no significant difference in the level of long-term selection.The second study explores the altruistic behavior choice tendency under situational moral identity.In the dimension of social distance,the difference in moral identity is more significant in the choice of good friends.There are significant differences in the choice tendency of altruistic behavior.Individuals with high moral identity are more likely to choose altruistic behavior than those with lower moral identity level.Among strangers,individuals with high moral identity are more likely to choose altruistic behavior than individuals with lower moral identity.To sum up,social distance/space distance and moral identity have interactive effects.There is a significant difference in altruistic behavior choice between individuals with high moral identity level and low moral level individuals in recent selection/selection of good friends,and there is a significant difference in altruistic behavior selection tendency between individuals with high moral identification level and those with low moral level.When the psychological distance is far away,the difference is not significant except the social distance level.
