摘要: 社会群体的实体性是指群体被知觉为一个真正独立存在的有意义实体的程度。它受到知觉者、社会情境和文化等因素的影响。实体性在群际关系中具有重要意义, 它影响着认同、刻板印象, 偏见和群际冲突。实体性从本质上来说并不是绝对积极的或消极的群体特征, 它主要取决于知觉者与群体的关系性质和其所处的情境。对中国研究者而言, 如何让实体性最大可能地发挥积极作用, 以利于群体关系的和谐是未来研究应该努力的方向; 加强中国文化背景下实体性与群际关系的研究, 为解决中国各社会阶层以及不同群体之间的和谐相处提供理论上的指导也是未来可以关注的方向。

Abstract: The entitativity of social groups refers to the degree to which groups are perceived to be a significantly substantive entity. Entitativity is influenced by percipient, social contexts and cultural factors. It has important consequences on intergroup relations; It affects ingroup identification, stereotypes, bias and group conflict. Group entitativity is not either a positive or a negative group attribute per se; rather, it depends on the context and the relationship between the perceiver and the group. The future researches should focus on how to enhance the positiveness of group entitativity, and how to strengthen entitativity studies in Chinese culture context, so as to achieve a harmonious society in China.

Key words: social groups, entitativity, intergroup relations
