Abstract:In the current study, two experiments were adopted to investigate the influence from stability of power on self- and others-humanization (including both human nature and human uniqueness towards self, specialized-others, and generalized-others). The results were as follows: (1) when individuals hold stable power, compared with low-power ones, high-power ones show more animalistic and objectification forms of dehumanization towards to specialized- and generalized-others, while those with unstable power did not exhibit any above difference; (2) under the stable-power condition, individuals with low power was revealed to be a larger degree of animalistic dehumanization towards self than both specialized- and generalized-others, while such effect was diminished under the unstable-power condition. Taken together, the variability of power could help eliminate individual’s dehumanization.
