Peer Effect On The Relationship Between Self-control And Remote Acculturation

General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward for the first time in his report to the19 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China: "Forming the Consciousness of the Chinese Nation as a Community".In recent years,he has repeatedly emphasized this concept on various occasions.In May 2020,Xi Jinping,General Secretary of the Communist Party of China(CPC),emphasized once again during his inspection trip to Shanxi Province,"We should deeply explore the historical connotation of the exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups in the Yungang Grottoes and enhance the awareness of the Chinese nation as a community." In the process of communication and integration,all ethnic groups will face challenges and pressures brought by cultural differences,and the process of coping with these challenges and pressures is acculturation.Traditional acculturation emphasizes that acculturation must be a direct contact between people,occurring in the same place and during the same period of time.Today,due to the force of globalization,cultural exchanges can also occur without the non-physical contact that accompanies population migration,which provides us with the possibility of another kind of cultural contact,namely,remote acculturation.It allows indirect,discontinuous and meaningful cultural contact between different cultural groups that are geographically isolated.The Tibetan compatriots live in farming areas over a long period of time,due to the limitation of the regional economic level,the lack of life experience of the developed cities,only through trade,technology,mass media and other media indirectly,intermittent contact with new culture,they are in contact with the process of cultural differences bring challenges and pressure,which requires them to remote to adapt to the new culture.In the process of cultural interaction,all ethnic groups should learn from each other and forge a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation.Only in this way can the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation be realized.Previous studies have confirmed that self-control,as a positive trait,is an ability to adapt to the world by adjusting self-behavior,which has a positive impact on individual acculturation.At the same time,culture is a concept of group and socialization,and the formation process of individual culture before early adulthood will be influenced by peers.Peer interaction in the process of acculturation will have an impact on self-control and thus promote acculturation.A good peer relationship can enable individuals to better identify and adapt to the new culture.Remote acculturation is the expansion and innovation of traditional acculturation,and it is also a process that requires individuals to actively explore their own resources to face.Culture involves values,attitudes and so on.It is not easy for individuals to be aware of some deep concepts.Therefore,based on the similarity between remote acculturation and acculturation,this study will explore the influence of self-control on implicit remote acculturation.In this study,Tibetan middle school students were used as subjects.The classical Stroop paradigm was used to treat the subjects with high and low self-loss,and the Implicit Association Test(IAT)paradigm was used to measure the remote acculturation status of the subjects.From two aspects of self-positive traits and peer support system,the peer effect between self-control and remote acculturation is discussed.It is divided into two studies:Study 1 explored the influence of ego depletion on implicit remote acculturation of Tibetan middle school students.A total of 263 Tibetan middle school students who had never been to the Han region or lived in the Han region for less than 20 days were selected and divided into two groups for ego depletion task,followed by measuring the status of implicit remote acculturation.In the second study,we explored whether peer effect priming had an impact on the implicit remote acculturation of wasted individuals.Will be a companion to peer effects of quantitative self control and peer remote cultural adaptation: experiment 1screen has never been to the Han areas or in the Han area life length is not more than 20 days of Tibetan high school students,253,with 2(loss of self control/lossless)x 4(companions start: there are friends self control start/no self control start/no individual self control start/individual self control)of the two factors between subjects design of experiment and measurement company self control start to the loss of individual implicit remote culture and adapt to what effect;Experiment2 screen has never been to the Han areas or in the Han area life length is not more than 20 days of Tibetan high school students,267,the same 2(loss of self control: / lossless)x 4(companions start: there is companion remote cultural adaptation no peer remote start/cultural adaptation no individual remote start/cultural adaptation remote start/have individual cultural adaptation)of the two factors between subjects design of experiment,the measurement of different peer remote start cultural adaptation to the loss of individual implicit remote culture adapt to what effect.The experimental results are summarized as follows:1.Under different levels of ego depletion,individuals’ preference for Tibetan and Chinese culture was significantly different,and individuals tended to choose Tibetan culture in the implicit task.2.After the initiation of peer self-control,individuals have significant differences in their preference for Tibetan and Chinese culture.3.After the peer self-control condition was initiated,there were significant differences in the preference for Tibetan and Chinese culture under different loss levels.4.There was an interaction between peer self-control and ego depletion on the effect of implicit intensity.When peer self-control was initiated,the participants with loss were more inclined to choose Tibetan culture for implicit task.5.There was no significant difference in preference for Tibetan and Chinese culture after the initiation of peer remote acculturation.6.At different loss levels,there was no significant difference in individual preference for Tibetan and Chinese culture after the initiation of remote acculturation.The conclusions are as follows:1.Self-control has a positive effect on remote acculturation.2.Peer self-control has a positive effect on remote acculturation.3.Peer self-control can enhance the positive effect of self-control on remote acculturation.
