The emotional valence of memory recall strongly influences the extreme, and often self‐destructive behavioral response. Overall, 4427 people from the community filled out our screening questionnaire, of which 674 (mean age: 32.9 years, 64.7% women) passed the threshold for the likely presence of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Participants watched one of 9 possible video clips differing in valence (positive, negative or neutral). Results indicate support (ß = .151, p < .05) for a negative cognitive tendency in the evaluations proportionate to the severity of BPD but only when the impression is assessed with negatively‐worded items. This effect is detectable regardless of other factors such as negative mood, extremity of the answers or general impression of the character. These effects are unaffected by acute trauma. To conclude, different factors influence the recall of emotional stimuli, depending on the valence of the stimuli and the valence of the rating scale in persons with strong borderline tendencies.

当情况变得更糟时：负面措辞会放大具有边缘性格特征的人的负面回忆

记忆回忆的情绪价强烈影响极端的，经常是自我毁灭的行为反应。总体上，来自社区的4427人填写了我们的筛查问卷，其中674名（平均年龄：32.9岁，女性占64.7％）通过了可能存在边缘性人格障碍（BPD）的阈值。参与者观看了9个可能的价位不同的视频片段之一（正，负或中性）。结果表明支持（ß = .151，p <.05）评估中的负面认知趋势与BPD的严重程度成正比，但仅当印象用否定词评估时才如此。不管其他因素如何，例如负面情绪，答案的极端或角色的总体印象，都可以检测到这种效果。这些影响不受急性创伤的影响。综上所述，有多种因素会影响情绪刺激的回忆，这取决于具有强烈边缘倾向的人的刺激价和评级量表的价。
