ABSTRACT

Psychological closeness refers to how recent and near an event feels to a person remembering the event and how close this person feels from their “past self” in the event. Participants recalled recent positive and recent negative experiences and rated them on field perspective, observer perspective, emotionality, recollective experience, and psychological closeness at two sessions held four weeks apart. Field perspective, emotionality, recollective experience, and psychological closeness decreased over time. More field perspective, higher emotionality, and stronger recollective experience corresponded with higher levels of psychological closeness. In addition, participants with large changes between the two sessions in field perspective and emotionality also reported large changes in recollective experience, and participants with large changes in recollective experience also reported large changes in psychological closeness. Finally, recollective experience mediated the relation between field perspective and psychological closeness. Recollective experience, however, did not consistently mediate the relation between emotionality and psychological closeness.

摘要

心理亲近度是指一个人对一个事件的记忆和接近程度，以及这个人与事件中“过去的自己”的接近程度。参与者回忆了最近的积极和最近的消极经历，并在相隔四周的两次会议上对现场视角、观察者视角、情绪、回忆体验和心理亲近度进行了评分。现场视角、情绪、回忆体验和心理亲密度随着时间的推移而下降。更多的领域视角、更高的情绪化和更强的回忆体验与更高水平的心理亲密度相对应。此外，在两次会议之间在现场视角和情绪方面发生较大变化的参与者也报告了回忆体验的巨大变化，记忆体验发生较大变化的参与者也报告了心理亲密度的较大变化。最后，回忆经验在场域视角与心理亲密度之间起中介作用。然而，回忆经验并没有始终如一地调解情绪和心理亲密度之间的关系。
