用AI对话让白人更接纳拉美移民,共同身份感提升助人意愿。

Can Conversational AI loosen Us-Versus-Them Boundaries? The Effects of Common, Dual, and Separate Identity Framings on Pro-Immigrant Intergroup Helping

  • 通过AI引导三类身份叙事:共同、双重或分离身份,影响认知分类。
  • 双重与共同身份组的助人意愿显著高于对照组,但行为无直接提升。
  • 认知重构可间接促进行动意愿,适合政策与社会融合研究者参考。

移民潮加剧多国群体矛盾,传统反偏见项目难推广且受美国政策限制。本预注册实验以658名非拉丁裔白人美国成人为样本,开展五轮与大语言模型(GPT-4o)的对话。模型按设定框架将拉美移民表述为共同美国人身份、双重身份或分离文化身份,或讨论无关话题作为对照。结果显示:相比对照组,共同与双重身份对话降低了群体分离认知,双重身份对话提升了双重认同。尽管对行为与亲多样性信念无显著直接影响,强调超类别身份(共同与双重)的组别在助人意愿上显著更高。路径分析显示,两类干预均降低分离分类,进而正向关联助人意愿。话语语义相似性分析证实对话内容符合设定叙事;参与者对共享身份语言的趋同与助人意愿正相关,对分离身份语言的趋同则负相关。这些效应在封闭需求、经验开放性和政治倾向等调节因素下保持一致。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Rising immigration has intensified intergroup tensions in many countries. Traditional bias-reduction programs remain difficult to scale and increasingly constrained by U.S. policy. This preregistered experiment tested whether conversational AI can shift how majority-group members categorize and relate to Latine immigrants. Drawing on the common ingroup identity model, a quota-representative national sample of 658 non-Latine White U.S. adults completed five rounds of dialogue with a LLM (GPT-4o). The model was instructed to frame Latine immigrants in terms of a common ingroup identity (a shared American identity), a dual identity (both Latine and American), or a separate identity (distinct cultural boundaries), or to discuss an unrelated topic in a control condition. The manipulations altered categorization: relative to control, common ingroup identity and dual identity conversations lowered separate categorization, and dual identity conversations raised dual categorization. Although direct effects on behavior and pro-diversity beliefs were nonsignificant, willingness to act was significantly higher in the conditions emphasizing a superordinate identity (common ingroup and dual identity). A path model further revealed indirect associations: both conditions reduced separate categorization, which in turn correlated with greater willingness to act. Semantic similarity analyses of the transcripts confirmed that conversations tracked their assigned narratives; participants' convergence with shared-identity language related positively, and with separate-identity language negatively, to willingness to act. These effects were largely consistent across moderators (need for closure, openness to experience, and political orientation). The findings show that brief AI conversations can loosen us-versus-them boundaries while underscoring the gap between cognitive recategorization and behavior.
