Abstract:
This study proposes a model in which cultural confidence functions as a mediator to examine how cultural confidence among middle-school students in ethnic regions transmits the effect of ethnic integration attitudes onto a sense of community for the Chinese nation. Using the Ethnic Integration Attitude Scale, Cultural Confidence Scale, and Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation Scale, 900 students from grades 7–12 in an ethnic area of Sichuan were surveyed. Results indicate that (1) Ethnic integration attitudes, cultural confidence, and the sense of community for the Chinese nation are significantly and positively inter-correlated; (2) Significant gender differences exist in all three variables; and (3) Cultural confidence mediates the relationship between ethnic integration attitudes and the sense of community for the Chinese nation.
本研究构建以文化自信为中介变量的模型,探究民族地区中学生的文化自信在民族交融态度和中华民族共同体意识间的中介作用。研究采用民族交融量表、文化自信量表、中华民族共同体意识量表,对四川某民族地区900名初一至高三的中学生进行问卷调研。结果显示:民族交融态度、中华民族共同体意识、文化自信三者呈现显著正相关;民族交融态度、中华民族共同体意识、文化自信在性别维度存在显著差异;文化自信在民族交融态度与中华民族共同体意识间的中介作用成立。
