Study Notes
Hypotheses on Help Types
- Autonomy-helping leads to greater support for a helper's leadership than dependency-helping.
- The role of perceived benevolence mediates the impact of help type on support for the helper's leadership.
Boundary Condition: Time-Pressure
- Autonomy-helping is generally seen as beneficial as it addresses recipients' intrinsic needs and long-term wellbeing.
- Under time-pressure, there's a shift towards valuing immediate solutions and short-term performance goals over long-term autonomy and mastery goals.
- Situational urgency can enhance perception of benevolence for helpers providing dependency-helping.
- Conditions that justify urgency can influence how help is perceived and valued by recipients, potentially altering the advantages of different help types.
