摘要: 基于平衡和成长视角,安静自我指一种既不过分关注自我,也不过分关注他人,融入他人而不丧失自我的同一性。发展安静自我有利于个体的心理健康,能够提高个体主观幸福感、改善个体主观评估的健康以及降低个体的物质主义倾向。通过对安静自我的内涵、特征和功能的综述,可以看出安静自我本质上是空间和时间维度上自我的平衡与整合。未来研究有待在安静自我结构的明晰性、本土化以及安静自我的发展和促进方面展开更多的探讨。基于稳态应激的思想,我们设想安静自我的结构在时间和空间两个领域既表现出稳定性又表现出灵活性的特征。

关键词: 安静自我, 心理健康, 平衡, 成长, 促进

Abstract: Quiet ego is a kind of identity that neither pays too much attention to self nor others, integrating with others without losing self. It is beneficial to individual mental health, especially to improve the individual subjective well-being, self-rated physical health, and the reduction of materialism. By introducing the concept of quiet ego, the perspectives of growth and balance, the measurement, and the influence of quiet ego on mental health, it can be seen that quiet ego is essentially the balance and integration of self in space and time dimensions. So far, there have been increasing studies about quiet ego, but as a relatively new perspective, the conceptualization, the localization in China, the development and promotion of the quiet ego remains to be investigated in the future. Based on allostasis, we assume that quiet ego involves both stability and flexibility in time and space.

Key words: quiet ego, mental health, balance, growth, promotion
