Inhoud: Building on a model of helpers' reactions to unexpected rejection of their help, we reasoned that if acceptance of the help was perceived by prospective helpers as highly important (rather than unimportant) to their own self-image of social competence or to the recipient's welfare, then rejection would be relatively threatening to that self-image, and their cognitive and valuative reactions following rejection would be relatively strong. An experiment on Macau high school students provided empirical support. As predicted, rejection elicited relatively lower postdiction of acceptance, higher attribution of the rejection to recipient defensiveness, and lower evaluations of the recipient's competence under manipulated conditions of high (compared to low) perceived importance to either party. Contrary to predictions, high importance elicited relatively greater desire for further task-relevant association. The theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed.
