Abstract: There are two fundamental content dimensions in social cognition: Agency and communion. Agency refers to the pursuit of individuality, while communion drives people into groups. The two dimensions play important roles in personality and social psychology. In order to provide a measurement of behavioral orientation in fundamental dimensions, the current study aims to revise the scale measuring unmitigated agency and communion which published by Wojciszke and Szlendak in 2010. After ten items were deleted from the original version, the Chinese version of the unmitigated agency and communion scale resulted in high reliability and validity. Two factors are meaningful with high commonality and factor loading items. The unmitigated agency and communion are highly correlated with corresponding values. Group difference supports the validity of this scale: female show higher unmitigated communion than male, while male show higher unmitigated agency than female. These results showed the revised unmitigated agency and communion scale can be used in Chinese context.
