The present study, based on incremental belief about intelligence, aimed at exploring the effect of a belief in improvable intelligence on self evaluation of participants with different self-esteem. Participants were 207 undergraduate students. The results indicated as follows: 1)when incremental belief about intelligence was introduced prior to threat condition, participants who were intervened by the belief significantly exhibited higher intrinsic self evaluation after finishing practice about given ability in high threat condition. Particularly, the intervention significantly predicted low self-esteem participants' intrinsic self evaluation in high threat condition positively. 2)when incremental belief about intelligence was introduced after threat condition, the intervention significantly predicted high self-esteem participants' intrinsic self evaluation in high threat condition positively. 3)incremental belief about intelligence had no influence on participants' extrinsic self evaluation in high threat condition after finishing practice.%以207名大学生为被试,采用两个研究考察在高威胁情境下,智力增长观对不同自尊水平的个体完成能力提升练习后自我评价的影响.结果表明:(1)当智力增长观在威胁情境前呈现时,在高威胁情境下,完成智力增长观写作任务的被试在练习后的内部自我评价显著高于控制组,并且智力增长观能够显著正向预测低自尊被试的内部自我评价.(2)当智力增长观在威胁情境后呈现时,在高威胁情境下,智力增长观能够显著正向预测高自尊被试的内部自我评价.(3)智力增长观任务对高威胁情境下被试完成练习后的外部自我评价无显著影响.
