【摘要】本研究以中国年轻女性为样本，在客观化理论的框架内检验了“美貌即货币”的假设。我们采用四百零四名女大学生完成了一份纸笔问卷。我们假设通过自我客观化和身体监视的连续冥想，将美貌作为货币与接受整容手术和职业抱负有关。结果表明，自我客观化和身体监视介导了女性对美貌的信仰与接受整容手术之间的关系。身体监视调节了作为货币的美貌与职业抱负之间的关系。这些发现为“美貌即货币”假说提供了进一步的证据，表明女性美的意识形态可能通过自我客观化的过程导致女性对整容手术的接受度更高，职业抱负也更低。我们的研究为理解女性意识形态对性别系统变化的影响提供了一些启示。

[Abstract] The current study tested the "beauty as currency" hypothesis in the framework of Objectification theory with a sample of Chinese young women. Four hundred and four college women completed a pencil-and-paper questionnaire. We hypothesized that beauty as currency would be associated with acceptance of cosmetic surgery and career aspirations through the serial meditation of self-objectification and body surveillance. The results indicated that self-objectification and body surveillance mediated the relation between women's belief in beauty as currency and acceptance of cosmetic surgery. Body surveillance mediated the relationship between beauty as currency and career aspirations. These findings provide further evidence for the "beauty as currency" hypothesis, suggesting the feminine beauty ideology may lead to women's higher acceptance of cosmetic surgery and lower career aspirations via the self-objectifying process. Our study provides some implications for understanding the effect of women's ideologies on gender system change.

[Key words] Acceptance of cosmetic surgery; Chinese women; beauty as currency; body surveillance; career aspirations; self-objectification.
